abhi kya kahen abhi kya sunayen
ke sar-e-fasil-e-sukut-e-jan
kuf-e-roz-o-shab pe sharar numa
wo jo harf jarf charag tha
use kis hawa ne bujha diya
kabhi lab hilenge to puchna
sar-e-sahar-e-ahad-e-wisal-e-dil
wo jo nikahaton ka hujum tha
use dast-e-mauj-e-firaq ne
tah-e-khak kab se mila diya
kabhi gul khilenge to puchna
abhi kya kahen abhi kya sunayen
yun hi khwahishon k fishar main
kabhi be-sabab kabhi bekhalal
kahan kaun kis se bichar gaya
kise kis ne kaise ganwa diya
kabhi phir milenge to puchna
