Ghazal Lyrics
Chupke chupke raat din, aansu bahanaa yaad hai Hum ko ab tak aashiqui ka, vo zamaanaa yaad hai
Tujhase milate hi vo kuch Bebaak ho jaanaa meraa Aur teraa daaton mein vo Ungalii dabaanaa yaad hai
Chori Chori ham se tum aa kar mile the jis Jagah Muddatein Guzarin par ab tak wo Thikaanaa yaad hai
Khench lenaa vo meraa parde kaa konaa daffaatan Aur Dupatte se teraa, vo Moonh Chhupaanaa yaad hai
Do-pahar ki dhoop mein, mere bulaane ke liye Vo teraa kothe pe nange paaon aanaa yaad hai
Baahazaaraan iztiraab-o-sadd-hazaaraan ishtiyaaq Tujh se vo pehale pehal dil kaa lagaanaa yaad hai
Jaan kar sotaa tujhe vo qasa-e-paabosii meraa Aur teraa Thukaraa ke sar vo muskuraanaa yaad hai
Tujh ko jab tanhaa kabhii paanaa to az_raahe-lihaaz Hal-e-dil baatoon hii baatoon mein jataanaa yaad hai
Jab sivaa mere tumhaaraa koii diivaanaa na thaa Sach kaho kyaa tum ko bhii vo kaarKhaanaa yaad hai
Gair kii nazaroon se bachakar sab kii marzii ke Khilaaf Vo teraa chorii chhipe raatoon ko aanaa yaad hai
Aa gaya gar vasl ki shab bhii kahiin zikr-e-firaaq Vo teraa ro ro ke bhi mujhko rulaanaa yaad hai
Dekhanaa mujhako jo bargashtaa to sau sau naaz se Jab manaa lenaa to phir Khud ruuTh jaanaa yaad hai
Berukhii ke Saath sunna Dard-e-Dil kii dastaan Vo, Kalai mein tera, kangan ghumaanaa yaad hai
Vaqt-e-Rukhsat Alvidaa kaa Lafz Kehene ke liye Vo, Tere Sukhe Labon kaa, thar-tharaanaa yaad hai
Baavajuud-e-iddaa-e-ittaqaa 'Hasrat' mujhe Aaj tak ahad-e-havas kaa ye fasaanaa yaad hai
