Dil tha ki khush khyaal tujhe dekh kar hua,
ye shehar be-misaal tujhe dekh kar hua.
Apne khilaaf shehar ke andhe huzoom mein,
dil ko bahut malaal tujhe dekh kar hua.
Tool-e shab-e firaaq teri khair ho ki dil,
amaada-e visaal tujhe dekh kar hua.
Ye hum hu jaante hain judaai ke mod par,
iss dil ka jo bhi haal tujhe dekh kar hua.
Aayi na thi kabhi mere lafzon mein roshani,
aur mujh se ye kamaal tujhe dekh kar hua.
Bichhde toh jaise zehan muattal sa ho gaya,
shehar-e sukhan bahaal tujhe dekh kar hua.
Phir log aa gaye mera maazi kuredne,
phir mujh se ek sawaal tujhe dekh kar hua. !!
ye shehar be-misaal tujhe dekh kar hua.
