jawaani ke heele, hayaa ke bahaane,
yeh maana ke tum mujhse purdah karogi
yeh duniya magar tujhsi bholi nahiN haiN,
chupakar muhobath ko roosva karogi
badi koshisoN se, badi kaavishoN se,
tammanna ke sehmi hui saazishoN se
milega jo mauka, tho bechain hokar,
dareechoN se tum mujhko dekha karogi
sathaayegi jab chandni ki udhasi,
dukhaayegi dil pe hiza ki khamoshi
ufaq ki taraf khaali nazreN jamakar,
kabhi jo na socha wo socha karogi
kabhi dil ki dhadkan mehsoos hogi,
kabhi tandi saansoN ki toofan utheNge
kabhi ghir ke bistar pe aaheN bharogi,
kabhi jukhke thakiye pe roya karogi
yeh maana ke tum mujhse purdah karogi
yeh duniya magar tujhsi bholi nahiN haiN,
chupakar muhobath ko roosva karogi
badi koshisoN se, badi kaavishoN se,
tammanna ke sehmi hui saazishoN se
milega jo mauka, tho bechain hokar,
dareechoN se tum mujhko dekha karogi
sathaayegi jab chandni ki udhasi,
dukhaayegi dil pe hiza ki khamoshi
ufaq ki taraf khaali nazreN jamakar,
kabhi jo na socha wo socha karogi
kabhi dil ki dhadkan mehsoos hogi,
kabhi tandi saansoN ki toofan utheNge
kabhi ghir ke bistar pe aaheN bharogi,
kabhi jukhke thakiye pe roya karogi
