Bahot din bad aaj ankh se ansu nikla hai,
Pyar ke liye nahi lekin aaj dil apnon ke liye roya hai,
Socha tha na dikhau jazbat apne,
Lekin phir socha mere lafz padhne wale bhi apne hi hai.
Harek ansu ki kimat aaj pata chali hai,
Nikla ankho se lekin mehsus dil ko hua hai,
Pyar karo to pyar ko nibhana jarur,
Lekin bhul na jana ki apne bhi kai rishtey piche khade hai.
Roya to mai bhi kabhi nahi tha pehle,
Aaj socha ki dekhu kuch sapne tutne se pehle,
Bar bar wohi pal ankho ke samne ane lage,
Jo wade kiye the usne dil todne se pehle.
Aaj ki rat kuch khas si ban chuki hai,
Lagta hai jese chand ne apni parchai dekh rakhi hai,
Lagta hai pyar ki chandni badal mai gumnam si hai,
Aur gam ki hawaye mano thand mai rajai si lag rahi hai.
