tazad-e-jazbaat mein ye nazuk maqam aaya to kya karoge
main ro raha hun tum hans rahe ho main muskuraya to kya karoge
mujhe to is darja waqt-e-rukhsat sukun ki talqin kar rahe ho
magar kuchh apne liye bhi socha main yaad aaya to kya karoge
abhi to tanqid ho rahi hai mere mazaq-e-junun pe lekin
tumhaari zulfon ki barhami ka sawal aaya to kya karoge
tumhaare jalwon ki raushni mein nazar ki hairaniyan musallam
magar kisi ne nazar ke badle jo dil aazmaya to kya karoge
utar to sakte ho yar lekin maal par bhi nigah kar lo
khuda-na-karda sukun-e-sahil na ras aaya to kya karoge
kuchh apne dil par bhi zakhm khao mere lahu ki bahaar kab tak
mujhe sahaara banane walo main ladkhadaya to kya karoge
abhi to daman chhuda rahe ho bigad ke 'qabil' se ja rahe ho
magar kabhi dil ki dhadkanon mein sharik paya to kya karoge
