rota hua wo baam mujhe yaad hai abhi
dil mein bikharti sham mujhe yaad hai abhi

phir kaise ho gaya hai wahi shakhs itna khas
samjhe the jis ko aam mujhe yaad hai abhi

hum aur sath sath kabhi is tarah milen
jaise khayal-e-kham mujhe yaad hai abhi

wo guftugu nigahon nigahon mein yaad hai
sargoshi mein salam mujhe yaad hai abhi

kaise sanbhal sanbhal ke bada dekh-bhaal kar
hum tum the ham-kalam mujhe yaad hai abhi

kya din the khwahishon ki badi rel-pel thi
jazbon ka izhdiham mujhe yaad hai abhi

puchha ki mere dil mein iqamat hai kab talak
us ne kaha mudam mujhe yaad hai abhi

puchha ki zindagi mein mera ham-safar hai kaun
main ne kaha ghulam mujhe yaad hai abhi

ab tak wo zaiqa bhi mujhe yaad hai 'yashab'
hum ne piya tha jam mujhe yaad hai abhi
