kabhi khole to kabhi zulf ko bikhraae hai — Prem Warbartani

tum ne likkhaa hai mire khat mujhe vaapas kar do
Dar gaiin husn-e-dil-aavez ki rusvaai se

aakhir us ki sukhi lakDi ek chitaa ke kaam aai
hare-bhare qisse sunte the jis pipal ke baare mein

kam-umri mein sunet hain
mar jaate hain achchhe log

baDe qalaq ki baat hai ki tum ise na paDh sake
hamaari zindagi to ik khuli hui kitaab thi

zindagi ke bahut qarib na jaa
faasla kuchh to apne dhyaan mein rakh

zindagi tu bhi hamein vaise hi ik roz guzaar
jis tarah ham tujhe barson se guzaare hue hain

umr bhar kaun nibhaataa hai ta'alluq itnaa
ai miri jaan ke dushman tujhe allaah rakkhe

main tujh se saath bhi to umar bhar kaa chaahtaa thaa
so ab tujh se gilaa bhi umar bhar kaa ho gayaa hai
