Yeh Chaand Aur Yeh Abar-e-Rawaan Guzarta Rahe
Jamaal-e-Shaam Teh-e-Asmaan Guzarta Rahe,

Bhara Rahe Teri Khushbu Se Tera Sehn-e-Chaman
Bas Ek Mosam-e-Ambar Fishaan Guzarta Rahe,

Sama`aten Tere Lehje Se Phool Chunti Rahein
Dilon K Saaz Pe Tu Naghma Khawaan Guzarta Rahe,

Khuda Kare Teri Aankhen Humesha Hansti Rahen
Diyaar-e-Waqt Se Tu Shaadmaan Guzarta Rahe,

Main Tujh Ko Dekh Na Paaon To Kuch Malaal Nahi
Kaheen Bhi Ho Tu, Sitara Nishaan Guzarta Rahe,

Main Maangti Hoon Teri ZIndgi Qiyamat Tak
Hawaa Ki Tarah Se Tu Jawedaan Guzarta Rahe,

Mera Sitara Kaheen Toot Kar Bekhar Jaaye
Falaik Se Tera Khat-e-Kehkashaan Guzarta Rahe,

Main Teri CHaaon Mein Kuch Dair Bayth Loon Aur Pher
Tamaam Raasta Be Saaiebaan Guzarta Rahe,

Yeh Aag Mujh Ko Humesha Kiye Rahe Roshan
Mere Wajood Se Tu Shola Saan Guzarta Rahe,

Main Tujh Ko Dekh Sakoon Aakhri Basarat Tak
Nazar Kay Saamne Bass Ek Samaan Guzarta Rahe,

Humaara Naam Kaheen To Likha Howa Hoga
Mah-o-Najoom Se Yeh Khakdaan Guzarta Rahe,

Main Tera Saath na De Paaon Pher Bhi Tera Safar
Gulaab-o-Khawab Kay Hi Darmiyaan Guzarta Rahe,

Main Tere Seene Pe Sarr Rakh Kar Waqt Bhool Gai
Khiyaal-e-Tezi Umar-e-Rawaan Guzarta Rahe.

Nazar Ka Husn Bhi Husn-e-Butaan Se Kam To Na Tha
Mera Yaqeen Bhi Tumhaare Gumaan Se Kam To Na Tha,

Mizaaj-e-Azmat-e-Adam Ki Baat Hai, Warna
Zameen ka Zulm Tere Asmaan Se Kam To Na Tha,

Guzar Raha Tha Jahaan Se Main Sang Dil Ban Kar
Woh Mor Sheesha Garon Ki Dukaan Se Kam To Na Tha,

Na Jaane Kiyoon Teri Aankhen Khamosh Thien, Warna
Dil-e-Ghareeb Ka Naghmaa Faghaan Se Kam To Na Tha,

Rah-e-Januu Kay Nasheb-o-Faraaz Mein “Mohsin”
Khird Ka Phool Bhi Sang-e-Giraan Se Kam To Na Tha.

Qismat Se Bhi Kuch Siwaa Dia Hai ?
Baarish Ne Hamain Mila Dia Hai

Dekhi Hai Meri Udaasi Os Ne
Aur Dekh Ke Muskura Diya Hai

Ab Tou Mujhe Sabar Aa Gaya Tha
Ye Kis Ne Mujhe Rula Dia Hai ?

Wo Chaahay Tou Raasta Badal Le
Mein Ne Tou Dia Jala Dia Hai

Os Ronaq-e-Bazm Ne Tou Meri
Tanhaayi Ko Sajaa Dia Hai

Wo Pal Ke Sulagh Uthaa Hai Malboos
Aur Os Ne Diya Bujhaa Dia Hai

Dil Jo Hai Aag Laga Doon Os Ko,
Aur Phir Khud Hee Hawa Doon Os Ko,

Jo Bhee Hai Os Ko Ganwa Betha Hai,
Mein Bhala Kaisay Ganwa Doon Os Ko ?

Tujh Gumaan Per Jo Emaarat Ki Thi,
Sochta Hoon K Mein Dhaa Doon Os Ko

Jism Mein Aag Laga Doon Os Ke,
Aur Phir Khud Hee Bujha Doon Os Ko,

Hijr Ki Nazar Tou Deni Hai Osay,
Sochta Hoon Ke Bhulaa Doon Os Ko,

Jo Nahee Hai Meray Dil Ki Dunya,
Kyun Na Mein ‘Jhon’ Mita Doon Os Ko ?

Zamanay se nahi darta, Zamanay ko bata do tum,
Mohabbat naam hai mera, Zamanay ko bata do tum,

Dikhayi bhi nahi deta, kisi insaan ki aankho ko,
Judayi zakhm hai aisa, Zamanay ko bata do tum,

Najanay kyu Khatakta hu, mai ab un ki nigaho mai,
Mai thukrata hu ye dunya, Zamanay ko bata do tum,

Jala daalu ga teri bewafaa basti ki galiyo ko,
Mai hu ik aag ka darya, Zamanay ko bata do tum,

“Hasnain” Abhi to waqt un ka hai, rula ley jee bhar ke,
Hamara waqt bhi aaye ga, Zamanay ko bata do tum

Dasht Mein Piyas Bujhaty Howe Mar Jaate Hain
Hum Parinde kahein Jatay Howe Mar Jaate Hain,

Hum Hain Sookhay Howy Talaab Pe Baithe Howe Hans
Jo Taaluq ko Nibhaatae Howe Mar Jaate Hain,

Un Kay Bhi Qatal Ka Elzam Hamare sar Hai
Jo Hamain Zaher Pilatay Howe Mar Jaate Hain,

Yeh Mohabat ki kahani Nahi Marti Lekin
Log kirdar Nibhate Howe Mar Jaate Hain,

Hum Hain Woh Tooti Howi kashtiyon Waale “Mohsin”
Jo kinaaron ko Milaatay Howe Mar Jaate Hain.

Muu’n chupaaye huye guzra hai idhar se jo woh aaj,
Us ki aankhon mein koi zakham neya lagtaa hai….

Koi bhi aadmi poora nahin hai,
Kahin aankhen, Kahin chehra nahin hai..

Ru-Baruu Wo Hai Ibaadat Kar Raha Hun
Oske Chehray Ki Tilaawat Kar Raha Hun

Lo Kharido Ik Nazar Ke Moul Mujhko
Apni Qeemat Mein Riyaayat Kar Raha Hun

Li Hai Sabr-o-Zabt Ne Mujh Se Ijaazat
Apne Mehmaanon Ko Rukhsat Kar Raha Hun

Chhin Gaya Mulk-e-Jawaani Bhi Tou Kia Gham ?
Ab Bhi Yaadon Per Hukoomat Kar Raha Hun

Koi Bhi Gham Osko Loutaaya Nahi Hai
Yun Amaanat Mein Khayaanat Kar Raha Hun

Osne Tou Bas Ik Zara Si Baat Chehri
Mein Wazaahat Per Wazaahat Kar Raha Hun

Ishq Karke Aap Bhi Ban Jaayein Insaan
Sheikh Sahaab Ko Naseehat Kar Raha Hun

Aashiqui Tufaan-e-Girya Chahti Hai
Aur Mein Aahon Per Qana’at Kar Raha Hun

Aasmaan Jo Shaks Hai Sab Ki Nazar Mein
Osko Chhuu Lainay Ki Jurrat Kar Raha Hun

Mein Ne Dekha Hai Qateel Os Ka Saraapa
Mein Kahaan Zikr-e-Qayamat Kar Raha Hun ???

Safar-e-Manzil-e-Shab Yaad Nahi
Loog Rukhsat Huye Kab Yaad Nahi

Awwaleen Qurb Ki Sarshaari Mein
Kitnay Armaan Thay Jawaab Yaad Nahi

Dil Main Har Waqt Chubhan Rehti Thi
Thi Mujhe Kis Ki Talab Yaad Nahi

Wo Sitaara Thi K Shabnam Thi k Phool
Ik Soorat Thi Ajab Yaad Nahi

Kaisi Veeraan Hai Guzargaah-e-Khayaal
Jub Se Wo Aariz-o-Lab Yaad Nahi

Bhooltay Jaatay Hain Maazi Ke Dayaar
Yaad Aayein Bhi TOu Sub Yaad Nahi

Aisa Uljha Hun Gham-e-Duniya Main
Ek Bhi Khwaab-e-Tarb Yaad Nahi

Rishta-e-Jaan Tha Kubhi Jis Ka Khayaal
Oski Soorat Bhi Tou Ab Yaad Nahi

Ye Haqiqat Hai K Ehbaab Ko Ham
Yaad Hee Kab Thay Jo Ab Yaad Nahi

Yaad Hai Sair-e-Charaaghan “Nasir”
Dil k Bujhne Ka Sabab Yaad Nahi
