yun to ek umr sath sath hui

yuuñ to ik 'umr saath saath huī

jism kī ruuh se na baat huī

kyuuñ ḳhayāloñ meñ roz aate haiñ

ik mulāqāt jin ke saath huī

kitnā sochā thā dil lagā.eñge

sochte sochte hayāt huī

laakh tākīd husn kartā rahā

'ishq se ḳhaak ehtiyāt huī

ik faqat vasl kā na vaqt huā

din huā roz roz raat huī

kyā batā.eñ bisāt zarre kī

zarre zarre se kā.enāt huī

shāyad aa.ī hai rut chunāvoñ kī

kal jo kūche meñ vārdāt huī

kyā thī mushkil visāl-e-haq meñ 'sadā'

tujh se bas rad na terī zaat huī

yun to ek 'umr sath sath hui

jism ki ruh se na baat hui

kyun KHayalon mein roz aate hain

ek mulaqat jin ke sath hui

kitna socha tha dil lagaenge

sochte sochte hayat hui

lakh takid husn karta raha

'ishq se KHak ehtiyat hui

ek faqat wasl ka na waqt hua

din hua roz roz raat hui

kya bataen bisat zarre ki

zarre zarre se kaenat hui

shayad aai hai rut chunawon ki

kal jo kuche mein wardat hui

kya thi mushkil visal-e-haq mein 'sada'

tujh se bas rad na teri zat hui
