a jaane kab wo palat aayen dar khula rakhana
gaye huwon ke liye dil mein kuch jagah rakhana
hazaar talk hon yaaden magar wo jab bhi milen
zubaan pe achchhe dinon ka hi zaayaka rakhana
na ho ke kurb hi phir marg-e-rabt ban jaaye
mile agar to zara usase faasala rakhana
utaar phaink de kush-fahamiyon ke saare gilaaf
jo shaks bhool gaya usako yaad kya rakha
