Yaad

Kab se baitha hu aas mai, tujhe bhoolne ke rasto ki talaash mei

Raah takte takte ek sadi hui, na tu ayi na teri yaad gayi

Ye kaisi daldal hai, ye kaisi maya hai, jo na meri manzil hai na meri humsafar;

phir bhi kis qadar mera muqaddar ho chali hai

Apne raste pe nazrei tikaaye chale ja raha hu, jaanta hu kya chaahta hu, kis disha mei apne kadmo ko badhana hai

Phir bhi kyu mera har kadam bas teri ore hi uth-ta hai, aur mere saare ye rastey tujhme kyu manzil paate hai

Mai jaanta hu tu ab raqeeb ka naseeb hai,
phir bhi na jaane kyu ye baahei bas tere naam pe khulti hai,
phir bhi na jaane kyu ye saanse bas teri aahat pe chalti hai

Tujhe paane ki ab bhi koi khwaahish nahi, lekin tujhe kho kho dena kasam khuda ki meri saazish nahi

Aaj bhi mera suraj tere chehre se chadhta hai, aaj bhi meri raatei tera hi pukara karti hai

Mai jaanu na mai kya chahu, tujhe paa lena tujhe kho dena,
par tujhe kho dene ka gam tujhe paane se kuch jyaada hai.
