Ye Aarzu Thi...

Ye aarzu thi tujhe gul ke ro-ba-ro karte
Ham aur bulbul-e-betaab guftagu karte

Payaam bar na mayassar howa to Khoob howa
Zabaan-e-Ghair se kya shar ki aarzu karte

Meri tarah se maah-o-mahar bhii hain aawara
Kisi habeeb ko ye bhi hain justaju karte

Jo dekhte teri zanjeer-e-zulf ka aalam
Aseer hone ke azad aarzu karte

Na pooch aalam-e-baragashtaa taali-e-"Aatish"
Barsati aag mein jo baaraan ki aarzu karte...
