muddaa jo zehn se uttha tha wo beja na tha
dil bahut masum tha dil aql-parwarda na tha

main tilism-e-raushni se kha raha tha kyun fareb
dhup thi to tha mera apna koi saya na tha

jangalon ne kar liya taslim jaane kyun gunah
ai jahan-e-nau tera ilzam tak pukhta na tha

raqs karte karte ek din khak ho jaenge hum
ranj farmaega is darja junun socha na tha

main shuru-e-ishq mein hal karne wala tha ise
masala ruh-o-badan ka itna pechida na tha

jab yahan rahne ke sab asbab yakja kar liye
tab khula mujh par ki main duniya ka bashinda na tha

rafta rafta maut ki jaanib badha kyun har koi
zindagi mein kya bura tha zindagi mein kya na tha
