tumhaari rah kaa rahaa ham ko har taraf dhokaa — Zain

dam kaa aanaa to baDi baat hai lab par 'aarif'
zoaf ne harf-e-shikaayat kabhi aane na diyaa

tum apni zulf se puchho miri pareshaani
ki haal us ko hai maalum hu-ba-hu meraa

vo parda-nashini ki riaayat hai tumhaari
ham baat bhi khalvat se nikalne nahin dete

furqat mein kaar-e-vasl liyaa vaah vaah se
har aah-e-dil ke saath ik armaan nikal gayaa

na aae saamne mere agar nahin aataa
mujhe to us ke sivaa kuchh nazar nahin aataa

saunp kar khaana-e-dil gham ko kidhar jaate ho
phir na paaoge agar us ne ye ghar chhoD diyaa

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

baiThaa hai jo ki saaya-e-divaar-e-yaar mein
farmaan-ravaa-e-kishvar-e-hindustaan hai

har taraf dosti kaa mela hai
phir bhi har aadmi akelaa hai

ghair ho koi to us se khul ke baatein kijiye
doston kaa doston se hi gila achchhaa nahin

apne sab yaar kaam kar rahe hain
aur ham hain ki naam kar rahe hain

dair-o-haram pukaarne aae hamein magar
lekin khayaal-e-yaar se fursat nahin mili
