Aahat hoi to samjhay k ho gai muraad puri,
Darwaza khola usko na paya to bohat yaad aya!
Har waqat rehta tha dil mein dharkan ban k,
Aaj pani ban k aankhon mein aya to bohat yaad aya!
Sar-e-shaam se muntazir thein uski surat ko nigahain Mohsin,
Wo raat gaye tak na aya to bohat yaad aya!
Aaj barsoon baad rotay rotay meri aankh lag gai,
Us k khawab ne achanak jo jagaya to bohat yaad aya!
