Tanha na apnay aapko ab payey janaab,
Meri ghazal ko saath liyey jayey janaab !
Nagmon ki baarishon mein kahin beegnay chalay,
Mausam ki aarzoo ko na thukrayey janaab !
Rishton ko bhool jana to aasaan hai magar,
Pehlay khud apnay aapko samjhayey janaab !
Aisa na ho thamay huey aansoo chalak padey,
Rukhsat kay waqt mujko na samjhayey jaanab !
Main saaz hoon yeh yaad rahey isliyey kabhi,
Meray hi sher mujko suna jayey janaab !
Tanha na apnay aapko ab payey janaab,
Meri ghazal ko saath liyey jayey janaab !
