main kahan hun ki mera jism to saya hai mera
ye haqiqat hai ki har khwab paraya hai mera

ru-ba-ru aaine mein aks wo apna hi sahi
khush hua hun ki mere ghar koi aaya hai mera

tu mere ishq se inkar karega kaise
khal-o-khad mein tere chehra ubhar aaya hai mera

kyon mujhe band kiya hai sar-e-tah-khana-e-zist
kuchh to malum ho kya jurm khudaya hai mera

aag phaili hai kahan se mere chaaron jaanib
kis ne ai mauj-e-hawa shahr jalaya hai mera

sans lene ki jo koshish kabhi ki hai 'tariq'
mazhaka khub hawaon ne udaya hai mera
