meri jaan go tujhe dil se bhulaya ja nahin sakta
magar ye baat main apni zaban par la nahin sakta

tujhe apna banana mojib-e-rahat samajh kar bhi
tujhe apna bana lun ye tasawwur la nahin sakta

hua hai bar-ha ehsas mujh ko is haqiqat ka
tere nazdik rah kar bhi main tujh ko pa nahin sakta

mere dast-e-hawas ki dastaras hai jism tak tere
samajhta hun ki tere dil pe qabza pa nahin sakta

tere dil ki tamanna bhi karun to kis bharose par
main khud dargah mein teri ye tohfa la nahin sakta

meri majburiyon ko bhi bahut kuchh dakhl hai is mein
tujhi ko morid-e-ilzam main thahra nahin sakta

main tujh se badh ke apni aabru ko pyar karta hun
main apne izzat-o-namus ko thukra nahin sakta

tere mahaul ki pasti ka tana dun tujhe kyun kar
main khud mahaul se apne rihai pa nahin sakta
