Yeh Haseen ShaaM Apni,
Abhi JisMe Ghul Rahi Hai,
Tere Parahan Ke Khushbu
Abhi JisMe Khil Arhe Hai,
Mere Khwab Ke Shagoofey,
Zara Der Ka Hai Manzar
Zara Der Me UfaQ Par
Khilega Koi Sitara,
Teri SiMt Dekh Kar Wo
Karega Koi Ishara
Tere Dilko Aayega Phir
Kisi Yaad Ka Bulawa,
Koi Qissa-E-Judayi, Koi Kaar-E-NaaMukaMMal,
Koi Khwaab-E-Naashagufta, Koi Baat Kehne Wali,
HaMein Chahiye Tha Milna
Kisi Ahd-E-Meherbaan Mein,
Kisi Khwab Ke Yakeen Mein,
Kisi Aur AasMan Par
Kisi Aur SarzaMeen Mein,
HaMein Chahiye Tha Milna…

Zindgi Log jisy Marham-e-ghum janty hen.
Jis Tarha Hum nen guzari he hum janty hen.

Dard Kuch or ata kar k tere Dard Nawaz.
Ye Sakhawat tere Mayar se kam janty hen

Sar Barhana chaly aye hen k pathar barsen.
Hum tere Shehar ka Ain-e-Karam janty hen.

Shiddat-e-Ghum ka ye Alam he Shab-e-Hijr k hum
Har sitary ko tera Deeda-e-Nam janty hen

Hum k Khulty thy Kabhi Zabat-e-Janoon ki Rut men.
Harf-e-Sheerin ko bhi ab Katra-e-Sam janty hen...

Shehar Ka Shehar Agar Aaye Bhii Samjhaney Ko
Is Se Kya Farq Pray Ga Teray Dewaney Ko

Jis Qadar Weham Hain Sab Us Ke Atta Karda Hain
Liye Phirta Hon Kisi Aur Ke Butt-Khaney Ko

Yeh Hunar Wo Hai Jo Dil Se Kabhi Seekha Na Gaya
Tu Ne To Jorr Liya Torr Ke Paimaney Ko

Kya Koii Khail Hai Be-Naam O Nishan Ho Jana
Waisey Shama Bhii Tyaar Hai Jal Janey Ko

Wo Ajab Shakhs Tha Kal Jis Se Mulaqaat Hoii
Main Milla Hon Kisi Jaaney Hoye Anjany Ko

Aaj Ke Dukh Bhi Kisi Se Nahi Jhailay Jatey
Yaad Mat Kar Kisi Bhooley Hoye Afsaanay Ko

Door Tak Raat Kii Aankhon Mein Kahen Neend Nahien
Itna Sanata Hai Ke Aaye Koii Tarpanay Ko

Zindgii Bhar Mein Koii Shaey To Mukamil Kar Lien
Aao Labraiz Karien Sabr Ke Paimanay Ko

Yeh Alag Baat Ke Eik Boond Muqadar Mein Na Thi
Sar Pe So Baar Ghata Chaaii Rahii Chaaney Ko

Shaam Honey Ko Hai Jalnay Ko Hai Sham E Mehfil
Saans Lainey Ko Bhi Fursat Nahien Parwaney Ko...

kyaa sarokaar ab kisii se mujhe
vastaa thaa to thaa tujhii se mujhe...

behisii kaa bhii ab nahii.n ehasaas
kyaa huaa terii beruKhii se mujhe...

maut kii aarazuu bhii kar dekhuu.N
kyaa ummiide.n thii zindagii se mujhe...

phir kisii par na aitabaar aaye
yuu.N utaaro na apane jii se mujhe...

tera Gam bhii na ho to kyaa jiinaa
kuchh tasallii hai dard hii se mujhe...

kar gaye kis qadar tabaah ’BUTT’
dushman, andaaz-e-dostii se mujhe...

bujhi hui sha'ma ka dhuaan hun, aur apne markaz ko ja raha hun
k dil ki hasrat to mit chuki hai, ab apni hasti mita raha hun

ye teri hi soorat k dekhne ko, butoon ki tasweerain la raha hun
k khoobian sab ki jama kr k, tera tasawur jama raha hun

kafan mai khud ko chupa lia hai, k tujh ko parday ki ho na zehmat
naqab apne liye bana kr, hijab tera utha raha hun

mohabbat insaan ki hai fitrat, kahan hai imkan-e-tark-e-ulfat
wo aur bhi yaad aa rahe hain, mai un ko jitna bhula raha hun...

khwahish hay k iss toor se jeewan ko guzaroon
har aks tere husn ka ankhun main utaroon...

woh tishna labi hay k samjh kuch nahi ata
dariya ko sada doon k samander ko pukaroon...

jeewan bhi tu uljhi hoi doroon ki terha hay
iss soch main gum hon k isey kaise guzaroon...?

ab iss k siwa mera koi khwaab nahi hay
her saans ko khushnoodi e janaa pe main waroon...

dostii jab kisii se kii jaaye
dushmano.n kii bhii raaye lii jaaye...

maut kaa zehar hai fizaao.n me.n
ab kahaa.N jaa ke saa.Ns lii jaaye...

bas isii soch me.n huu.N Duubaa huaa
ye nadii kaise paar kii jaaye...

merey maazii ke zaKhm bharaney lagey
aaj phir ko_ii bhuul kii jaaye...

botale.n khol ke to pii baraso.n
aaj dil khol ke bhii pii jaaye....
