kis ko hai waqt ki puchhe wo haqiqat teri

kis ko hai waqt ki puchhe wo haqiqat teri
jaanta kaun nahin ab ye musibat teri
khush-nasibi hai jo rahte hain tere pas aksar
is bahane unhen hoti hai ziyarat teri


teri zulfon se koi ghair ulajhta hai agar
aankhen ho jati hain tab misl-e-qayamat teri
mujh ko afsos hai tu ne mujhe samjha hi nahin
mujh ko har mod pe pesh aai zarurat teri


ab to ehsas ye hota hai ki har pal ai dost
khak mein mujh ko mila dalegi nafrat teri
raaz main tera sanbhaalunga hun zinda jab tak
meri aankhon mein jo rakkhi hai amanat teri


wo bhi kahta hai ye 'minhaj' bichhad kar mujh se
khwab mein roz nazar aati hai surat teri
