tumhaari yaad mein hum jashn-e-gham manaen bhi
kisi tarah se magar tum ko yaad aaen bhi

chhalak hi padte hain khud hi gulab aankhon ke
wo pas aaen to ye dastan sunain bhi

har ek lamha yahi bekali si hai dil mein
ki un ko yaad karen un ko bhul jaen bhi

jawan gehun ke kheton ko dekh kar ro den
wo ladkiyan ki jinhen bhul baithin maen bhi

tamam umr yunhi ratjagon se kya hasil
unhen bhulaen zara nind ko bulaen bhi

sukun milta hai jalti hui dopahron mein
bani hain marham-e-dil dhup ki shuaen bhi

rawa-rawi mein hai har ek sohbat-e-yaran
milen sakun se to qisse tere sunaen bhi

wo jin ke zikr se 'nahid' zindagi hai hasin
wo log aaen to aankhon pe hum bithaen bhi
