gaii vo baat ki ho guftaguu to kyonkar ho

gaii vo baat ki ho guftaguu to kyonkar ho

kahe se kuchh na huaa phir kaho to kyonkar ho

hamaare zahan men is fikr kaa hai naam visaal

ki gar na ho to kahaan jaayen ho to kyonkar ho

adab hai aur yahii kashamakash to kyaa kiije

hayaa hai aur yahii gomago to kyonkar ho

tumhiin kaho ki guzaaraa sanam paraston kaa

buton kii ho agar aisii hii khuu to kyonkar ho

uljhate ho tum agar dekhate ho aaiinaa

jo tum se shahar men ho ek do to kyonkar ho

jise nasiib ho roz-e-siyaah meraa saa

vo shakhs din na kahe raat ko to kyonkar ho

hamen phir un se umiid aur unhen hamaarii qadr

hamaarii baat hii puchhe na vo to kyonkar ho

galat na thaa hamen khat par gumaan tasallii kaa

na maane diidaa-e-diidaar juu to kyonkar ho

bataao us mishaa ko dekhakar ho mujh ko qaraar

yah nesh ho rag-e-jaan men faro to kyonkar ho

mujhe junuun nahiin gaalib vale baqaul-e-huzuur

firaaq-e-yaar men taskiin ho to kyonkar ho
