Gaahe gaahe bas ab yahi ho kya?
Tumse mil kar bahut khushi ho kya?
Mil rahi ho bare tapaak ke saath,
Mujhko yeksar bhula chuki ho kya?
Yaad hain ab bhi apne khaab tumheN?
Mujhse mil kar udaas bhi ho kya?
Bas mujhe yun hi ik khayal aaya,
Sochti ho to sochti ho kya?
Ab meri koi zindagi hi nahin,
Ab bhi tum meri zindagi ho kya?
Kya kaha, ishq jaawidaani hai?
Aakhri baar mil rahi ho kya?
Haan, faza yaan’ ki soyi soyi si hai
To bahut taiz roshni ho kya?
Mere sab tanz be-asar hi rahe,
Tum bohat door ja chuki ho kya?
Dil mein ab soz-e-intezar nahin,
Shamm-e ummeed bujh gayi ho kya?
Is samandar pe tashna kaam huN maiN,
‘Baan’ tum ab bhi beh rahi ho kya
