Madan Mohan

Bhuli huyi yaadon, mujhe itana na sataao
Ab chain se rahane do, mere paas na ao

Daaman men lie baithha hun tute huye taaren
Kab tak main jiunga yun hi khwaabon ke sahaare
Diwaana hun, ab aur na diwaana banaao

Tujhe kya sunaaun main dilaruba
Tere saamane mera haal hai
Teri ek nigaah ki baat hai
Meri zindagi ka sawaal hai

Yahi hai tamanna, tere dar ke saamane meri jaan jaae

Ye duniya, ye mahafil, mere kaam ki nahin

Kis ko sunaaun haal dil-e-bekaraar ka
Bujhata hua charaag hun apane majaar ka
Ai kaash bhul jaaun, magar bhulata nahi
Kis dhum se uthha tha janaaja bahaar ka

Jaana tha ham se dur bahaane bana lie
Ab tumane kitani dur thhikaane bana lie

Rukhasat ke wakt tumane jo ansu hame die
Un ansuon se hamane fasaane bana lie

Wo jo milate the kabhi hamase diwaanon ki tarah
Aj yun milate hain jaise kabhi pahachaan n thi

Un ko ye shikaayat hai ke ham kuchh nahin kahate
Apani to ye adat hai ke ham kuchh nahin kahate

Majabur bahot karata hai ye dil to jubaan ko
Kuchh aisi hi haalat hai ke ham kuchh nahin kahate

Nagma-o-sher ki saugaat kise pesh karun
Ye chhalakate hue jajbaat kise pesh karun

Shokh ankhon ke ujaalon ko lutaaun kis par
Mast zulfon ki siyaah raat kise pesh karun

Sapanon men agar mere, tum ao to so jaaun
Baahon ki mujhe maala pahanaao, to so jaaun

Tu jahaan jahaan chalega, mera saaya saath hoga
Mera saaya, mera saaya, mera saaya, mera saaya
