rukh men gard-e-malaal thii kyaa thii - Khalil ur Rahman Azmi

rukh men gard-e-malaal thii kyaa thii

haasil-e-maah-o-saal thii kyaa thii

ek suurat sii yaad hai ab bhii

aap apanii misaal thii kyaa thii

mere jaanib uthii thii koii nigaah

ek mubaham savaal thii kyaa thii

us ko paakar bhii us ko paa na sakaa

justajuu-e-jamaal thii kyaa thii

dil men thii par labon tak aa na sakii

aarazuu-e-visaal thii kyaa thii

umr bhar men bas ek baar aaii

sa'at-e-laazavaal thii kyaa thii

koii khvaahaan na thaa ki jins-e-hunar

ek muflis kaa maal thii kyaa thii
