Hum Ko To Gardish-e-haalat Pe Rona Aaya

Hum ko to gardish-e-haalat pe rona aaya, 
Rone waale tujhe kis baat pe rona aaya,

Kaise jeete hain ye kis tarah jiye jaate hain,
Ahl-e-dil ki basar-auqaat pe rona aaya,

Ji nahin aap se kya mujh ko shikayat hogi,
Haan mujhe talkhi-e-haalat pe rona aaya,

Husn-e-maghroor ka ye rang bhi dekha aakhir,
Aakhir un ko bhi kisi baat pe rona aaya,

Kaise mar mar ke guzaari hai tumhein kya maloom,
Raat bhar taaron bhari raat pe rona aaya,

Kitne betaab the rim-jhim mein piyenge lekin,
Aai barsaat to barsaat pe rona aaya,

Husn ne apni jafaon pe bahaye aansu,
Ishq ko apni shikayaat pe rona aaya,

Kitne anjaan hain kya saadgi se poochhte hain,
Kahiye kya meri kisi baat pe rona aaya,

Awwal awwal to bas ek aah nikal jaati thi,
Aakhir aakhir to mulaqaat pe rona aaya,

'Saif' ye din to qayamat ki tarah guzra hai,
Jaane kya baat thi har baat pe rona aaya.!!
