chupke chupke raat din ansoo bahana yaad hai

chupke chupke raat din ansoo bahana yaad hai 
ham ko ab tak ashiqui ka vo zamana yaad hai 

bahazaara iztiraab-o-sad hazaara ishtiyak 
tujhse vo pehale pehal dil ka lagana yaad hai 

tujhse milte hi vo bebaak ho jana mera 
aur tera daato mei vo ungli dabana yaad hai 

kheench lena vo mera parde ka kona daffaatan 
aur dupatte se tera vo mooh chhupana yaad hai 

jaan kar sota tujhe vo qasa-e-paabosi mera 
aur tera thukraa ke sar vo muskurana yaad hai 

tujh ko jab tanha kabhi pana to azrahe-lihaaz 
hal-e-dil baaton hi baaton mei jatana yaad hai 

jab siva mere tumhara koi deewana na tha 
sach kaho kya tumko bhi vo kaarkhana yaad hai 

gair ki nazro se bachkar sab ki marzi ke khilaaf 
vo tera chori chhipe raato ko ana yaad hai 

agaya gar vasl ki shab bhi kahi zikr-e-firaaq 
vo tera ro-ro ke mujhko bhi rulana yaad hai 

dopahar ki dhoop mei mere bulaane ke liye 
vo tera kothe pe nange paao ana yaad hai 

dekhna mujhko jo bargashta to sau-sau naaz se 
jab mana lena to phir khud rooth jana yaad hai 

chori chori hamse tum aakar mile the jis jagah 
muddate guzari par abtak vo thikana yaad hai 

berukhi ke saath sunaana dard-e-dil ki daastan 
aur tera hatho mei vo kangan ghumana yaad hai 

waqt-e-rukhsat alvida ka lafz kehne ke liye 
vo tere sukhe labo ka thar-tharana yaad hai 

baavajood-e-iddaa-e-ittaqaa 'Hasrat' mujhe 
aaj tak ahad-e-havas ka ye fasana yaad hai
