use tum se mohabbat hai ghalat-fahmi mein mat rahna
ye bas dil ki shararat hai ghalat-fahmi mein mat rahna

tumhi ko dekh kar wo muskuraata hai to hairat kya
use hansne ki aadat hai ghalat-fahmi mein mat rahna

hue barbaad to ab aah-o-zari kar rahe ho tum
kaha bhi tha siyasat hai ghalat-fahmi mein mat rahna

main tujh ko chahta hun baat ye sach hai magar phir bhi
mujhe teri zarurat hai ghalat-fahmi mein mat rahna hi

jhuki nazron se takna aur khamoshi se guzar jaana
mohabbat ki riwayat hai ghalat-fahmi mein mat rahna

kiya karta hun 'rahi' us ki tarifen sabab ye hai
wo mujh se khubsurat hai ghalat-fahmi mein mat rahna
