Ek muddat se sar-e-baam wo aaya bhi nahin

ek muddat se sar-e-baam wo aaya bhi nahin
hum ko ab hasrat-e-didar-e-tamanna bhi nahin

jada-e-shauq mein tanha bhi hun tanha bhi nahin
kya hasin baat hai ruswa bhi hun ruswa bhi nahin

tum jo naraaz hue ho gai duniya barham
ab to girti hui diwar ka saya bhi nahin

kis ko main dut kahun kis ko main dushman jaanun
sabhi apne hain yahan koi paraya bhi nahin

aaj tak bhi main parastish to kiye jata hun
ye alag baat ki main ne tumhein dekha bhi nahin

subh ki shamen liye phirte ho kyun diwano
rishta-e-shab to abhi KHair se TuTa bhi nahin

to taKHayyul ke dariche mein tha khoya khoya
paikar-e-husn tujhe main ne jagaya bhi nahin

kis tarah gham ko main taqsim karunga yaro
qissa-e-dard ko haalat ne samjha bhi nahin

kab talak chalna paDega hamein tanha tanha
ab kisi moD pe mil jaenge aisa bhi nahin

ru-ba-ru un ke mere honT na khulne pae
dil ko izhaar-e-tamanna ka sahaara bhi nahin

jaane kya soch ke us ne mujhe diwana kaha
hae us ko abhi mahfil pe bharosa bhi nahin

rabte joDne nikla tha main insan ke 'KHayal'
kisi insan ne mujhe pyar se dekha bhi nahin
