thahraw aa gaya hai kuchh aisa zindagi mein
ki bahte bahte jharna mil jae jun nadi mein

puja hai us ne tum ko chaha na aashiqi mein
ab lutf kya milega is dil ko bandagi mein

dil hasraton ka jamghat phir kaisa suna-pan ye
do chaar pal ki khushiyan aain thin zindagi mein

dil chhu gaya ye un ka hona pada pasheman
kaisa asar tha aakhir aankhon ki is nami mein

chaho to yaad rakho chaho agar bhula do
ehsas ek sa hai is dil ko be-khudi mein

tanqid par hamari 'uzma' udas kyun hai
tum mein jo naqs dhunde shayad wo the hamin mein
