jaan dena bas ek ziyan ka sauda tha
jaañ denā bas ek ziyāñ kā saudā thā
rāh-e-talab meñ kis ko ye andāza thā
āñkhoñ meñ dīdār kā kājal Daalā thā
āñchal pe ummīd kā taara Tāñkā thā
hāthoñ kī bāñkeñ chhan chhan chhan hañstī thiiñ
pairoñ kī jhāñjhan ko ġhussa aatā thā
havā sakhī thī merī, rut ham-jolī thī
ham tīnoñ ne mil kar kyā kyā sochā thā
har kone meñ apne aap se bāteñ kiiñ
har pahchal par ā.īne meñ dekhā thā
shaam Dhale aahaT kī kirneñ phūTī thiiñ
sūraj Duub ke mere ghar meñ niklā thā
jaan dena bas ek ziyan ka sauda tha
rah-e-talab mein kis ko ye andaza tha
aankhon mein didar ka kajal Dala tha
aanchal pe ummid ka tara Tanka tha
hathon ki banken chhan chhan chhan hansti thin
pairon ki jhanjhan ko ghussa aata tha
hawa sakhi thi meri, rut ham-joli thi
hum tinon ne mil kar kya kya socha tha
har kone mein apne aap se baaten kin
har pahchal par aaine mein dekha tha
sham Dhale aahaT ki kirnen phuTi thin
suraj Dub ke mere ghar mein nikla tha
