jurm-e-nazzaaraa pe kaun itanii Khushaamad karataa
ab vo ruuThe hai.n lo aur tamaashaa dekho
do hii din me.n vo baat hai na vo chaah na pyaar
ham ne pahale hi ye tum se na kahaa thaa dekho
ham na kahate the banaavaT se hai saaraa Gussaa
ha.Ns ke lo phir vo u.nho.n ne hame.n dekhaa dekho
mastii-e-husn se apanii bhii nahii.n tum ko Khabar
kyaa suno araz merii, haal meraa kyaa dekho
ghar se har vaqy nikal aate ho khole hue baal
shaam dekho na merii jaan saveraa dekho
Khaanaa-e-jaa.N me.n namudaar hai ek paikar-e-nuur
hasarato aao ruKh-e-yaar kaa jalvaa dekho
saamane sub ke munaasin nahii.n ham par ye itaab
sar se Dhal jaaye na Gusse me.n dupaTTaa dekho
mar miTe ham to kabhii yaad bhii tum ne na kiyaa
ab muhabbat kaa na karanaa kabhii daavaa dekho
dosto tark-e-muhabbat kii nasiihat hai fazuul
aur na maano to dil-e-zaar ko samajhaa dekho
ab vo shoKhii se ye kahate hai.n sitamagar jo hai.n ham
dil kisii aur se kuchh roz bahalaa dekho
havas-e-diid miTii hai na miTegii “Hasrat”
dekhane ke liye chaaho u.nhe.n jitanaa dekho
