mere daravaaze se ab chaa.Nd ko ruKhsat kar do

saath aayaa hai tumhaare jo tumhaare ghar se
apane maathe se haTaa do ye chamakataa huaa taaj
phe.Nk do jismo.n se kira.Nno.n kaa sunaharii zevar
tum hii tanhaa mere Gam-Khaane me.n aa sakatii ho
ek muddat se tumhaare liye hii rakhaa hai
mere jalate huye siine kaa dahakataa huaa chaa.Nd

jab nahii.n aaye the tum tab bhii to tum aaye the
aa.Nkh me.n nuur kii aur dil pe lahuu kii suurat
yaad kii tarah dha.Dakate huye dil kii suurat
tum nahii.n aaye abhii phir bhii to tum aaye ho
raat ke siine me.n mahataab ke Kha.njar kii tarah
subah ke haath me.n Khurshiid ke saaGar kii tarah

tum nahii.n aaoge jab phir bhii to tum aaoge
zulfe.n baharam pe bikhar jaayegaa phir raat kaa ra.ng
shab-e-tanha_ii me.n bhii lutf-e-mulaaqaat kaa ra.ng
aao aate kii kare.n baat ki tum aaye to
ab tum aaye ho to kaun sii shay nazar karuu.N
ki mere paas sivaa mehar-o-vafaa ke kuchh bhii nahii.n

mere daravaaze se ab chaa.Nd ko ruKhsat kar do
