tum ne likkhaa hai mire khat mujhe vaapas kar do — Prem Warbartani

kabhi khole to kabhi zulf ko bikhraae hai
zindagi shaam hai aur shaam Dhali jaae hai

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

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

unhein apne dil ki khabrein mire dil se mil rahi hain
main jo un se ruuTh jaaun to payaam tak na pahunche

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

dil-e-haris hi apnaa na ho sakaa qaane
vagarna tere karam mein to kuchh kami na rahi

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

main badalte hue haalaat mein Dhal jaataa huun
dekhne vaale adaakaar samajhte hain mujhe
