dil kii choTo.n ne kabhii chain se rahane na diyaa
jab chalii sard hawaa mai.nne tujhe yaad kiyaa

ye mai.n sau jaa.N se tire tarz-e-taqallum ke nisaar
phir to farmaa_iye kyaa aapane irashaad kiyaa

isakaa ronaa nahii.n kyo.n tumane kiyaa dil barabaad
isakaa Gam hai ki bahut der se barabaad kiyaa

itanaa maanuus huu.N fitarat se kalii jab chaTakii
jhuk ke mai.nne ye kahaa mujhase kuchh irshaad kiyaa

merii har saa.Ns hai is baat kii shaahid ai maut
mai.nne har lutf ke mauqe pe tujhe yaad kiyaa

mujhako to hosh nahii.n tumako Kabar ho shaayad
log kahate hai.n ki tumane mujhe barabaad kiyaa

kuchh nahii.n isake siwaa 'josh' hariifo.n kaa kalaam
wasl ne shaad kiyaa hijr ne naa-shaad kiyaa
