Yun ganwata hai koi jaan-e-aziz

yun ganwata hai koi jaan-e-aziz
zindagi hoti to hum rakhte aziz

kya bataen ab bikhar jaane ke baad
aashiyan tha ya hamein tinke aziz

DhunDhta hai aaj kunj-e-afiyat
dil kabhi jis ko the hangame aziz

husn tha us shahr ka aawargi
aur hamein the panw ke chhaale aziz

ye na qissa hai na andaz-e-bayan
ye mera ahwal hai yar-e-aziz

ghar mein ji lagta nahin aur shahr ke
raste lagte nahin apne aziz

is tarah kya ai ghubar-e-dil koi
raqs karta hai sar-e-ku-e-aziz

sae hain jitne gurezan dhup se
dhup ko hain utne hi sae aziz

ya talluq kuchh na tha ya aap ko
gham hamare ho gae itne aziz

samne aate nahin aur KHwab mein
munh chhupa lete hain duzdan-e-aziz

aankh hai ya sair-gah-e-roz-o-shab
waqt hai ya jada-e-umr-e-aziz

kya ajab jo dard-o-gham ruKHsat hue
wo bhi the aaKHir 'rasa' apne aziz
