ab ke tajdiid-e-vafaa kaa nahiin imkaaN jaanaaN
yaad kyaa tujh ko dilaayeN teraa paimaaN jaanaaN
yuuN hii mausam kii adaa dekh ke yaad aayaa hai
kis qadar jald badal jaate hain insaaN jaanaaN
zindagii terii ataa thii so tere naam kii hai
ham ne jaise bhii basar kii teraa ehasaaN jaanaaN
dil ye kahataa hai ki shaayad ho fasurdaa tuu bhii
dil kii kyaa baat karen dil to hai naadaaN jaanaaN
avval-avval kii muhabbat ke nashe yaad to kar
bepiye bhii teraa cheharaa thaa gulistaaN jaanaaN
aaKhir aaKhir to ye aalam hai ki ab hosh nahiin
rag-e-miinaa sulag uThii ki rag-e-jaaN jaanaaN
muddaton se ye aalam na tavaqqo na ummiid
dil pukaare hii chalaa jaataa hai jaanaaN jaanaaN
ham bhii kyaa saadaa the ham ne bhii samajh rakhaa thaa
Gam-e-dauraaN se judaa hai Gam-e-jaanaaN jaanaaN
ab kii kuchh aisii sajii mahafil-e-yaaraaN jaanaaN
sar-ba-zaanuu hai ko_ii sar-ba-girebaaN jaanaaN
har ko_ii apanii hii aavaaz se kaa.Np uThataa hai
har ko_ii apane hii saaye se hiraasaaN jaanaaN
jis ko dekho vahii zanjiir-ba-paa lagataa hai
shahar kaa shahar huaa daaKhil-e-zindaaN jaanaaN
ab teraa zikr bhii shaayad hii Gazal me.n aaye
aur se aur huaa dard kaa unvaa.N jaanaa.N
