mujhe aksar woh kehta tha mohabbat kuch nahi hoti

mujhe aksar woh kehta tha mohabbat kuch nahi hoti
hijr ka khauf be-matlab vasl k khawab be-maani

koi soorat nigahon main kahan din raat rehti hay
usay kyun khamoshi kahiye k jis main baat rehti hay

yeh aansoo be-zuban aansoo bhala kia bol saktay hain
kahan dil main kisi ki yaad se toofaan uthtay hain

kahan palkon k saaye main nami din raat rehti hay
kahan hoti hain woh aankhain jahan barsaat rehti hay

mujhay aksar woh kehta tha mohabbat kuch nahi hotimagar jab aaj barson baad main ne us ko dekha hay

k us ki jheel aankhon main hijr ka khauf rehta hay
vasl k khawab rehte hain wahan barsaat rehti hay

yun lagta hay kayee raaton se woh soya nahi shayad
yun lagta hay kisi ki yaad ab din raat rehti hay

or us ki narm palkon k haseen saye bhi geelay hain
or us ki khamoshi aisi k jis main baat rehti hay

mujhay ab woh nahi kehta mohabbat kuch nahi hoti
keh ab shayad mohabbat ki woh sab ramzain samajhta hay.
