ham hain mataa-e-kuuchaa-o-baazaar kii tarah - Majrooh Sultanpurii

ham hain mataa-e-kuuchaa-o-baazaar kii tarah

uthatii hai har nigaah khariidaar kii tarah

is kuu-e-tishnagii men bahut hai ke ek jaam

haath aa gayaa hai daulat-e-bedaar kii tarah

vo to hain kahiin aur magar dil ke aas paas

phiratii hai koii shay nigaah-e-yaar kii tarah

siidhii hai raah-e-shauq pa yuun hii kabhii kabhii

kham ho gaii hai gesuu-e-diladaar kii tarah

ab jaa ke kuch khulaa hunar-e-naakhuun-e-junuun

zakhm-e-jigar hue lab-o-rukhsaar kii tarah

'majrooh' likh rahe hain vo ahal-e-vafaa kaa naam

ham bhii khade hue hain gunahagaar kii tarah
