ai wa’da-shikan KHwab dikhana hi nahin tha

Qaisar-ul-Jafri

ai wa’da-shikan KHwab dikhana hi nahin tha

Qaisar-ul-Jafri

ai vā’da-shikan ḳhvāb dikhānā nahīñ thā

kyuuñ pyaar kiyā thā jo nibhānā nahīñ thā

is tarah mere haath se dāman na chuḌāo

dil toḌ ke jaanā thā to aanā nahīñ thā

allāh na milne ke bahāne the hazāroñ

milne ke liye koī bahāna nahīñ thā

dekho merī sar phoḌ ke marne adā bhī

varna mujhe dīvāna banānā nahīñ thā

rone ke liye sirf mohabbat nahīñ thī

ġham aur bhī the dil fasāna nahīñ thā

na ham sahī kahte na banī dil kahānī

gosh-bar-āvāz zamāna nahīñ thā

'qaisar' koī aayā thā merī baḳhiya-garī ko

dekhā to garebāñ Thikāna nahīñ thā

ai wa’da-shikan KHwab dikhana hi nahin tha

kyun pyar kiya tha jo nibhana hi nahin tha

is tarah mere hath se daman na chuDao

dil toD ke jaana tha to aana hi nahin tha

allah na milne ke bahane the hazaron

milne ke liye koi bahana hi nahin tha

dekho meri sar phoD ke marne ki ada bhi

warna mujhe diwana banana hi nahin tha

rone ke liye sirf mohabbat hi nahin thi

gham aur bhi the dil ka fasana hi nahin tha

na hum sahi kahte na bani dil ki kahani

ya gosh-bar-awaz zamana hi nahin tha

'qaisar' koi aaya tha meri baKHiya-gari ko

dekha to gareban ka Thikana hi nahin tha
