cheharaa meraa thaa nigaahe.n us kii
Khaamushii me.n bhii vo baate.n us kii
mere chehare pe Gazal likhatii ga_ii.n
sher kahatii hu_ii aa.Nkhe.n us kii
shoKh lamho.n kaa pataa dene lagii.n
tez hotii hu_ii saa.Nse.n us kii
aise mausam bhii guzaare ham ne
subahe.n jab apanii thii.n shaame.n us kii
dhyaan me.n us ke ye aalam thaa kabhii
aa.Nkh mahataab kii yaade.n us kii
faisalaa mauj-e-havaa ne likkhaa
aa.Ndhiyaa.N merii bahaare.n us kii
niind is soch se TuuTii aksar
kis tarah kaTatii hai.n raate.n us kii
duur rah kar bhii sadaa rahatii hai
mujh ko thaame hue baahe.n us kii
