pal mein yari kar lete ho
baaten achchhi kar lete ho

kahe bina main rah nahin paun
qabu dil bhi kar lete ho

jis ke sath bhi jao usi ko
parchhain si kar lete ho

chunte ho tum mushkil maqsad
aur hasil bhi kar lete ho

dil mein kya hai pata hai tum ko
tum an-dekhi kar lete ho

hum se khul kar aisi baaten
bas ek tum hi kar lete ho

tum se dur rahen hum be-shak
tum tai duri kar lete ho

be-sabri bhi dekh chuke hain
intizar bhi kar lete ho

hamein bhula bhi dete ho tum
lekin yaad bhi kar lete ho

jab is darja betabi hai
kaise tasalli kar lete ho

kabhi kabhaar to baaten 'anjum'
bina baat bhi kar lete ho
