na apni kahna na meri sunna koi sunega to kya kahega
akele rona akele hansna koi sunega to kya kahega

dhalak ke qadmon pe aa ke girna ye haalat-e-be-khudi mein aanchal
khayal itna bhi ab na rakhna koi sunega to kya kahega

ye be-jhijhak zulf ki baghawat nigah-o-rukhsar-o-lab pe qabze
sanwarne walon ka ye bikharna koi sunega to kya kahega

samajh na sanson ko bojh itna udas rahna bhi khud-kushi hai
khud apni hasti tabah karna koi sunega to kya kahega

kaho ki ab aaegi qayamat tumhein nahin hai meri zarurat
tumhaara yun faisle se hatna koi sunega to kya kahega

dhalakte ashkon ka raaz kholo batao kya gham hai kuchh to bolo
hamare hote udas rahna koi sunega to kya kahega

hazar chaha mana lun 'anwar' magar wo ab tak khafa hain mujh se
qarib rahte hue na milna koi sunega to kya kahega
