Aashna

Mohabbat ek rubaab Bane,

Baitha tha door falak mein,

Teri jhutho ki dor se bandhe,

Hum bhi ude us nishane mein…

Kuch qasmo ki machan oh mein,

Hum araam kiya karte the,

Garweedah tere aankho mein,

Has kar doob Jaya karte the…

Achanak hawa ke jhonke mein,

Mera nind khul gaya hoga,

Qaagaz ki kore pannoh mein,

Kayi ghazale ugal diya hoga…

Likh-likh ke qaafir gardish mein,

Tujhe jataya kabhi nahi hoga,

Tere jhooth ke pinjare mein,

Khudko mitaya kabhi nahi hoga…
