tujhe main ne pa ke jo kho diya ye mere nasib ki chaal hai
mere chaara-gar tujhe kya khabar ki bichhadna kitna muhaal hai

kisi ghair se meri khairiyat tera puchhna bhi to kam nahin
mujhe ye yaqin to ho gaya tujhe ab bhi mera khayal hai

uthe zalzale chalin aandhiyan ye charagh phir bhi nahin bujha
ye karam nahin kisi aur ka teri rahmaton ka kamal hai

hai ajib mod pe zindagi na to gham raha na khushi rahi
na ghurur hai na surur hai na uruj hai na zawal hai

teri bewafai bhula to dun magar is khayal ka kya karun
mere bas mein kuchh bhi nahin raha mere dil ke shishe mein baal hai

kahin titliyon ka pata nahin ki parinda koi bacha nahin
wahi phul hain wahi khar hain wahi ped hai wahi dal hai

wo bichhad ke jine ka faisla to mujhe bujha ke chala gaya
na yaqin hai na guman hai na mere labon pe sawal hai

yahan har taraf hain numaishen na dilon ka chain na rahaten
na wo sadgi na wo dil-kashi na wo husn hai na jamal hai

na wo khwab aankhon mein unghte na wo raat jagne ke silsile
na wo jangalon ki kahaniyan na wo wahshaton ka ghazal hai
