Jab seene mein dil ka pata hi na tha
Tab dil ke dukhne ka gila hi na tha
Jab dard ka sirf ehasaas hi tha
Behalaane ka andaaz tab nirala hi tha
Jab katke jigar se lahoo girta tha
Tab katne ka sabab kaun poochta tha?
Jab dilbar ki tarah sath rehata tha
Tab hasne-muskurane se woh sharmata tha
Jab juda nahi jism se rehata zinda tha
Tab 'fiza' nibhaye sath fanaa jo hona tha
