kya kya na kiya ishq mein kya kya na karenge
lekin gham-e-jaanan tujhe ruswa na karenge

daman to bhigo denge bahar-haal mere ashk
mana koi tufan pa barpa na karenge

is tark-e-tamanna mein bhi shamil hai tamanna
jab ye hai to phir tark-e-tamanna na karenge

har chand sahi maslahat-e-waqt magar hum
apna sar-e-khuddar jhukaya na karenge

chamkenge wahi charkh-e-mohabbat pe sitare
jo gardish-e-aflak ki parwa na karenge

jo mang ke lani paden ghairon ke chaman se
hum aisi bahaaron ki tamanna na karenge

badlenge wahi gardish-e-ayyam ki taqdir
jo gardish-e-ayyam se badla na karenge

tufan jo safinon ko dubo dete the aksar
kya ab wo safinon ko duboya na karenge

kyon mashq-e-sitam ke liye aain tarasho
hum tum se kisi jaur ka shikwa na karenge
