ab to yahii hai.n dil kii duaaye.n
bhuulane waale bhuul hi jaaye.n

wajah-e-sitam kuchh ho to bataaye.n
ek mohabbat, laakh Khataaye.n

dard-e-mohabbat, dil me.n chhupaayaa
aa.Nkh ke aa.Nsuu kaiise chhupaaye.n

hosh aur un kii diid kaa daawaa
dekhanewaale.n, hosh me.n aaye.n

dil ki tabaahii bhuule nahii.n ham
dete hai.n ab tak unko du'aaye.n

rang-e-zamaanaa dekhanewaale
un kii nazar bhii dekhate jaaye.n

shuGl-e-mohabbat ab hai ye 'Taskii.n'
sher kahe.n aur jii bahalaaye.n
