thake tum na "bas, bas, sunaa!" kahate kahate

zabaa.N gu.ng hai ishq me.n gosh kar hai
buraa sunate sunate bhalaa kahate kahate
shab-e-hijr me.n kyaa hajuum-e-balaa hai
zabaa.N thak ga_ii marhabaa kahate kahate
gilaa harzaa-gardii kaa bejaa na thaa kuchh
vo kyuu.N muskuraaye bajaa kahate kahate
sad afasos jaatii rahii vasl kii shab
"zaraa Thahar ai bevafaa" kahate kahate
chale tum kahaa.N mai.n ne to dam liyaa thaa
fasaanaa dil-e-zaar kaa kahate kahate
