simat jaate hain baanhon se chhitak ke zingdi ke ehsaas,
nahi rehti ab dil me khushiyon ki guzarish,
udaas si khushiyon ke saaye chha jaate hain,
saanso pe lipat-te sehme se dhuein ki tarah,
aur khumaari reh reh ke le jaati hai hamein,
zulfon ke us saaye me jo hamara nahi..
ye gham kaise hain hum nahi jaante,
andhere ki lehron me kho jaana bhi nahi aata.

siyahi agar dil me bas jaye to acha ho,
khushiyon ka naquaab utar jaaye to accha ho,
teri yaad na aaye koi gham nahi,
ye zindagi ab hasr ho jaaye to accha ho.
