Wo ishq jo
ham se rot gaya ab is ka bataeN kya
Koi maher nahiN koi qabar nahiN
phir sacha sher sunayeN kya
Ek hijr jo
ham ko lahiq he ta der dohraeN kya
Wo zaher jo dil main otar liya ab
is ke naz othaeN kya
Phir aankheN laho se khali haiN
ye shameN bojhne wali haiN
Ham khod bhi kisi sawali haiN is
bat pe sharmaeN kya
Ek aag gam e
tanhai ki jo sare badan main phel gae
Jab jism hi sara jalta ho phir
daman e dil ko bachaeN kya
Ham nagma e sra kuch gazloN ke
ham sorat gar kuc khaboN ke
Be jazba e shoq sonaeN kya koi
khab na ho to bataeN kya
