YA RAB NA TAKHT O TAJ DE MUJH KO NA MAAL DE
INSANIYAT KA DARD MERE DIL ME DAAL DE

YE ALAG BAAT HAI K TAMEER NAHI HO SAKTE
WARNA HAR ZEHAN ME KUCH TAAJ MAHAL HOTE HAIn

YUN TO HAR DuR PE LAHKTE NAZAR AAYE DAMAN
KHENCHTE NAAZ SE JIS KO WAHI DAMAN nA MILA

YUN LAG RAHA HAI TERE RUKHSAAR KE QAREEB
JAISE CHIRAG KOI SURAJ KE SAAMNE

YE KAH KAH KE HUM DIL KO BAHLA RAHE HAIn
WO AB CHAL CHUKE HAIn WO AB AARAHE HAIn

YUN TU DUNIYA ME MIL JAATE HAI AHBAAB BoHaT
PAR KISI SE BHI WAFA KA NA TAQAZA KARNA

tere pyaar me.n rusvaa hokar jaayen kahaa.N devaane log
jaane kyaa kyaa puuchh rahe.n hai.n ye jaane pehchanay log

jaise tumhe.n hamane chaahaa thaa kaun bhalaa yuu.N chaahegaa
maanaa aur bahut aaye.nge tum se pyaar jataane log

kaise dukho.n ke mausam aaye kaisii aag lagii yaaro
ab saharaao.n se laate hai.n phuulo.n ke nazaraane log

kal maatam beqiimat hogaa aaj in ki tauqiir karo
dekho Khuun-e-jigar se kyaa kyaa likhate hai.n afasaane log

jaanate hai.n ye ishq musalasal rog hai aah-o-zaarii kaa
phir bhii usake kuuche me.n jaate hai.n umr ganvaane log

HAZAROO AZMATEY QURABAN US DAMAN KI AZMAT PER
JO MAJBOORI KE AALAM MEIN BHI PHELAYA NAHI JATA

FAQEERI ME BHI MUJH KO MANGNE ME SHARM AATI HAI
SAWALI HO KE MUJH SE HAATH PHELAYA NAHI JATA

JUDA KISI SE KISI KA HABEEB NA HO
YE DaAG WO HAI JO DUSHMAN KO BHI NASEEB NA HOO

HUM TUJHE BHooL GAYE HAY TERI SADA DILLII
KOI TAIYER KABHI BHOLA HAI NASHEMAN APNA

DEKH LE BULBUL O PARWANA KI BETAABI KO
HIJAR ACHA NA HASEENO KA WISAL ACHA HAI

KAMZARF SE RAKHTE HAI UMEEDE WAFA NADAA
BeHTay HUYE PAANI PE TASWEER BANA TE HAin

tum na maano magar haqiiqat hai

kuchh to dil mubatalaa-e-vahashat hai

mere mahabuub mujh se jhuuTh na bol
jhuuTh suurat-e-gar sadaaqat hai

jii rahaa huu.N is aitamaad ke saath
zindagii ko merii zaruurat hai

husn hii husn jalve hii jalve

chaman roye ha.Nse shabanam biyaabaa.N par nikhaar aaye
ek aisaa bhii nayaa mausam mere paravar digaar aaye
vo sar khole hamaarii laash par diivaanaavaar aaye
isii ko maut kahte hai.n to yaa rab baar baar aaye
sar-e-gor-e-Gariibaa.N aao lekin ye guzaarish hai
vahaa.N muu.Nh pheir kar ronaa jahaa.N meraa mazaar aaye
bahaa ai chashm-e-tar aisaa bhii ek aa.Nsuu nadaamat kaa

qafas ke ho liye ham to magar ae ahal-e-gulashan tum

"Qamar" dil kyaa hai mai.n to un kii Khaatir jaan bhii de duu.N
merii qismat agar un ko na phir bhii aitabaar aaye

har shammaa bujhii raftaa raftaa har Khvaab luTaa dhiire dhiire

Qadeer

US BEWAFA KE PYAR SE HASIL YE HUA HAI
DIL GAMZADA HAI MERA HONTO PE DUA HAI

US BOT KI PUJA SE MUJHE HASIL YE HUA HAI
CHAND ANSUOO KE QATROO SE YE TOOFAN UTHA HAI

YE ASHAAR KI BARISH HUTI HAI JO AKSAR
TUTE HUYE DIL KI AAH o BUKA HAI

TANHA HUN MAI KITNA YE MALOOM HU KIS KO
MELA SA MERE GIRD YUN TO LAGA HAI

ALLAH BACHAYE MERE DUSHMAN KO BHI IS SE
YE ISHQ BADA ZALIM SITAM GAR BADA HAI

BARSAT KA PANI BHI NAMKEEN HO GAYA HAI
AANSU HUMARI AANKH KA IS ME JO MILA HAI

GALTI HI HAMARI THI JO CHAHA THA AAP KO
AAB DARD JO MILA HAI TU TUM SE KYA GILA HAI

KARTE RAHENGE MUHABBAT Ae YAAR TUJHI SE
LAB KO MAGAR SEE LENGAY ANJAAM BURA HAI

KAR ISHQ KHUDA SE K WO BEWAFA NAHI HAI
BANDOON KE ISHQ ME TO ZILAAT HAI DAGA HAI

DIL E NAFEES KO YAA RAb DE HAUSLA
TUTA HAI KUCH AAISE K PARE PARE YE HUA HAI

DHOKA DIYA HAI TUM NE KUCH IS IHTAMAM SE
NAFARAT HI HOGAI HAI MUHABBAT KE NAAM SE

YADOO PE BHALA ZOOR CHALA HAI K AB CHALE
LAGTA HAI MEELA GHAR PE MERE YADOO KA SHAM SE

MUJH KO TU PILA AANKHO SE BAS AE SAQI E GULFAM
HUTA HAI NAHI NASHA KUCH MUJHE PYALE SE JAAM SE

DARTE HO AGAR TUM TU AAOO NA SAATH ME
AATE HO TU AAOO PHIR DARu NA KISI ILZAAM SE

IN DESH KE NEETAOO KO GARAZ KUCH BHI NAHI HAI
ISAA SE, MUHAMMAD SE, NA KUCH RAAM SE

DEKHA TUMHE TO DIL HUA PHIR MUZTARIB BADA
ROKA THA HUM NE LAKH ISSE MUHABBAT KE NAAM SE

PUTLI PHIREGI NAZAR ME AAYEGA KUCH NA YAAD
KARLO KHUDA KO YAAD ABHI IHTAAMAM SE

PATLI KAMR HAI AAP KI WALLAH HO BADI HASEEN
DIKHTA HAI GUZARTA HUA PAANI BHI KAAM SE

KHUD KA WAJOOD KHATAM KIA HAI NAFEES NE
PUKARTAY HAIN AB SABHI ISE TERE NAAM SE
