parsai ki baat karte ho
kyon khudai ki baat karte ho

jabki milna hi ghair mumkin hai
kyon judai ki baat karte ho

tum wafaon se ghair waqif ho
bewafai ki baat karte ho

tum sarapa ho kaj-rawi lekin
kaj-adai ki baat karte ho

zulf-e-jaanan ka hun asir magar
tum rihai ki baat karte ho

ye farebon ka daur hai 'tabish'
tum bhalai ki baat karte ho
