Tum nahin aae the jab

tum nahin aae the jab tab bhi to maujud the tum
aankh mein nur ki aur dil mein lahu ki surat

dard ki lau ki tarah pyar ki KHushbu ki tarah
bewafa wadon ki dildari ka andaz liye

tum nahin aae the jab tab bhi to tum aae the
raat ke sine mein mahtab ke KHanjar ki tarah

subh ke hath mein KHurshid ke saghar ki tarah
shaKH-e-KHun-rang-e-tamanna mein gul-e-tar ki tarah

tum nahin aaoge jab tab bhi to tum aaoge
yaad ki tarah dhaDakte hue dil ki surat

gham ke paimana-e-sar-shaar ko chhalkate hue
barg-ha-e-lab-o-ruKHsar ko mahkate hue

dil ke bujhte hue angare ko dahkate hue
zulf-dar-zulf bikhar jaega phir raat ka rang

shab-e-tanhai mein bhi lutf-e-mulaqat ka rang
roz laegi saba ku-e-sabahat se payam

roz gaegi sahar tahniyat-e-jashn-e-firaq
aao aane ki karen baaten ki tum aae ho

ab tum aae ho to main kaun si shai nazr karo
ki mere pas ba-juz mehr o wafa kuchh bhi nahin

ek KHun-gashta tamanna ke siwa kuchh bhi nahin
