main apni surat ko aaine mein
hun dekh kar aaj sakht hairan

wo khub-surat hiran si aankhen
kahan gain kya hua hai un ko

wahan to ab do gadhe hain baqi
muhib sunsan aur viran

gulab se surkh hont mere
khajil the yaqut-o-lal jin se

jama hua un pe dekhti hun
bahut se logon ka khun-e-nahaq

ye mera pila sa zard chehra
nahin hai ek khun ki bund jis mein

ye murdani dekh kar mujhe to
bada hi khauf aa raha hai khud se

main sochti hun ye bholi duniya
hai kitni masum aur nadan

ki phir bhi mujh ko samajh rahi hai
hasin aur naznin ab tak

magar nahin main to waqai hun
bahut hasin aur khub-surat

ye aaina jhut bolta hai
darogh-go hai

main tod dungi ise abhi phir
kabhi na dekhungi is mein chehra

sakhi wo aaina mujh ko la de
jo mujh ko ek bar phir dikha de

meri wo pahli si pyari surat
