shisha-e-dil mein tere waste baal aaya kyun
ye mujhe tujh se na milne ka khayal aaya kyun

main to khush tha ki tera man rakha hai main ne
tere chehre pe magar aks-e-malal aaya kyun

aur bhi gham the magar ek naya gham ye hai
main tere samne yun gham se nidhaal aaya kyun

kaise is dil ko mere chain mila awwal-e-shab
dard ki surmai shamon pe zawal aaya kyun

sirf ek kar-e-mohabbat tha jo karna tha mujhe
apne zimme kai kaam aur nikal aaya kyun

ek sitara meri dahliz pe tuta kaise
ek samundar ko mere dar pe ubaal aaya kyun

us ki masum nigahon mein na tha jis ka jawab
mere honton pe wahi harf-e-sawal aaya kyun
