koi pahra laga nahin hota
main hi phir bhi raha nahin hota

khun dil ka hua to ye jaana
naqsh kyun der-pa nahin hota

waqt kyun hai ghubar aankhon mein
aks bhi aashna nahin hota

kuchh to dil se kaha hai aankhon ne
zakhm-e-dil kya hara nahin hota

phir use hi talash karta hun
jis ka koi pata nahin hota

jo bhi apni zaban se deta wo
zaiqa bad-maza nahin hota
