Humne KaTi Hain Teri Yaad Mein Raaten Aksar

hum ne kaTi hain teri yaad mein raaten aksar

dil se guzri hain sitaron ki baraaten aksar

aur to kaun hai jo mujh ko tasalli deta

hath rakh deti hain dil par teri baaten aksar

husn shaista-e-tahzib-e-alam hai shayad

gham-zada lagti hain kyun chandni raaten aksar

haal kahna hai kisi se to muKHatab hai koi

kitni dilchasp hua karti hain baaten aksar

ishq rahzan na sahi ishq ke hathon phir bhi

hum ne luTti hui dekhi hain baraten aksar

hum se ek bar bhi jita hai na jitega koi

wo to hum jaan ke kha lete hain maten aksar

un se puchho kabhi chehre bhi paDhe hain tum ne

jo kitabon ki kiya karte hain baaten aksar

hum ne un tund-hawaon mein jalae hain charagh

jin hawaon ne ulaT di hain bisaten aksar
