chand ummidein nichoDi thiin to aahein Tapkin — Gulzar

aap ne auron se kahaa sab kuchh
ham se bhi kuchh kabhi kahin kahte

aaina dekh kar tasalli hui
ham ko is ghar mein jaantaa hai koi

shaam se aankh mein nami si hai
aaj phir aap ki kami si hai

aadatan tum ne kar diye vaade
aadatan ham ne e'tibaar kiyaa

aap ke baa'd har ghaDi ham ne
aap ke saath hi guzaari hai

kabhi to chaunk ke dekhe koi hamaari taraf
kisi ki aankh mein ham ko bhi intizaar dikhe

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

na ho ehsaas to saaraa jahaan hai be-his-o-murda
gudaaz-e-dil ho to dukhti ragein milti hain patthar mein

badalte vaqt ne badle mizaaj bhi kaise
tiri adaa bhi gai meraa baankpan bhi gayaa

'saif' andaaz-e-bayaan rang badal detaa hai
varna duniyaa mein koi baat nai baat nahin

aa mere saath baiTh mire saath chaae pi
aa mere saath mere dalaail pe baat kar
