Usay kehna mere qaasid

Suno k raigzaar_e_umr ka ye aakhri zarra

Meri be-jaan hatheli se phisalta ja raha hai ab

Meri guzri musafat ki thakan ab urrh aai hai

Mere qaasid... Suno... 

Jaane se pehle itna kehna hai

Mere ujrre shahar k un gali koochon main jao to

Jahan bachpan bitaya tha... Jahan sub kuch ganwaya tha

To us weeran khandar ko... Payaam_e_aakhri dena

Wahin aangan main dayen haath pe... Aik pairr dekho ge

Usi boorrhe shajr k sin-raseeda se badn per tum

Mere be-rung haathon ki lakeeron ki tarah... Aik jaal dekho ge

Usi peepal ki chhaon main

Kisi masoom k dil ne... Kayi sapne sajaye thay

Kisi ki aankh k aansoo... Kisi dil ne bahaye thay

Kisi ki jheel aankhon ne kayi saagar lutaye thay

Bohat narmi se us peepal ko chho ker... Itna keh dena

K ab aankhon k ye dariya.. Kahin saagar nahi hote

Muqqadar jin ka souta hai... Kabhi phir wo nahi sote

Usay kehna mere qaasid...

Jinhon ne umr saari teri chhaon main basar ker di

Wo aakhir pal tumhare paas aa ker... Kuch na keh paaye

Lipat ker tum se ro lain ge... Ager duniya main reh paaye

Suno qaasid...

Wahan se chand qadam k faasle per... Aik chokhat hai

Wahi chokhat hai ye pyaare...

Jahan sajde kiye hum ne... Jahan per zindagi haari

Jahan kuch pal jiye hum ne... Jahan per jaan yeh waari

Jawaan-margi per meri, shahar yeh matam-kanaan ho ga

Magar... 

Us aik chokhat per... Ajab sa he samaan ho ga

Wahan raqsaan sabhi chehron pe kuch ranaiyan hon gi

Wahan bajti chaharon soo... Bohat shehnaiyan hon gi

Wahan jis ki nazr main jeet jaane ki thakawat ho

Magar... 

Us dil-nasheen chehre pe... Gehri muskurahat ho gi

Samajh lena mere qaasid... 

Yehi qaatil mera thehra

Meri aankhen ye le jao... Mera ye kaam ker dena

Usay jee-bhar k takna tum... Meri aankhon main bhar lena

Usay chupke se keh dena

Tumhari jeet ki khaatir... 

Yeh jeewan jis ne haara hai

Nahi tum ho saki us ki... 

Wo mar ker bhi tumhara hai

Nahi... Balke... Mere qaasid...

Usay tum kuch nahi kehna...!!!
