Tanhai ki aadat hai ,aur aadat kabhi yeh jati nahi, vada kar

Tanhai ki aadat hai ,aur aadat kabhi yeh jati nahi,
vada karke teri nazar,vada kabhi bhi nibhati nahi,

Hum kehte hai ek baar tou dekh mood kar ,
woh kehte hai halat teri mujhse dekhi jati nahi,

Pehle tou kabhi kabhi chali aati thi aagosh mein,
lekin ab teri yaad bhi daman mera mehkati nahi,

Khud hi padh kar ro dete the kabhi hum gazal apni,
lekin aankhon mein meri ab yeh bhi nami laati nahi,

Tanha chhod gaye sab hume zindagi ki raah mein,
maut bhi dekhiye jara mere kareeb aati nahi...
