ku-e-qatil hai magar jaane ko ji chahe hai
ab to kuchh faisla kar jaane ko ji chahe hai

log apne dar-o-diwar se hoshiyar rahen
aaj diwane ka ghar jaane ko ji chahe hai

dard aisa hai ki ji chahe hai zinda rahiye
zindagi aisi ki mar jaane ko ji chahe hai

dil ko zakhmon ke siwa kuchh na diya phulon ne
ab to kanton mein utar jaane ko ji chahe hai

chhanw wadon ki hai bas dhoka hi dhoka ai dil
mat thahar garche thahar jaane ko ji chahe hai

zindagi mein hai wo uljhan ki pareshan ho kar
zulf ki tarah bikhar jaane ko ji chahe hai

qatl karne ki ada bhi hasin qatil bhi hasin
na bhi marna ho to mar jaane ko ji chahe hai

ji ye chahe hai ki puchhun kabhi un zulfon se
kya tumhaara bhi sanwar jaane ko ji chahe hai

rasan-o-dar idhar kakul-o-rukhsar udhar
dil bata tera kidhar jaane ko ji chahe hai
