raaz-e-gham ifsha karun ya raaz rakkhun raaz mein
hukm ho to kuchh sunaun aap ki aawaz mein

tum ne hans kar farq dala hai ye soz-o-saz mein
warna donon naghma-zan the ek hi aawaz mein

jab ye samjha gham ka har anjam ek aaghaz hai
main ne khud anjam shamil kar liya aaghaz mein

main to achchha hun magar ai chaaragar ye to bata
farq kyon mahsus karta hun teri aawaz mein

ho chuki tarkib-e-naqus-o-azan na-kaamyab
sochta hun ab pukarun kaunsi aawaz mein

aap se jab aap ke 'shadan' ko nisbat hi nahin
rabt kaisa hai ye us ki aap ki aawaz mein
