kyaa huaa teraa har ik roz mujhe khat likhanaa

kyaa huaa teraa har ik roz mujhe khat likhanaa

aur khat men dil-e-betaab kii haalat likhanaa

merii khaatir shab-e-furqat men na sonaa teraa

merii yaadon men pareshaan saa honaa teraa

aur phir khat men shab-e-hijr kii baabat likhanaa

kyaa huaa teraa har ik roz mujhe khat likhanaa

vo sar-e-shaam khayaalon men mere kho jaanaa

aur phir khud hii teraa sharmsaar ho jaanaa

vo akele men mujhe pyaar bharaa khat likhanaa

kyaa huaa teraa har ik roz mujhe khat likhanaa

kis liye tod diye tuune sabhii ahad-e-vafaa

kyaa hue vaade muhabbat ke bataa kuchh to bataa

kis liye chhod diyaa tuu ne mujhe khat likhanaa

kyaa huaa teraa har ik roz mujhe khat likhanaa
