Muhabbat ka dhuwan aankhon mein pani chor jata hay
Kisi raste se ghum guzre nishani chor jata hay
Humari guftugo se bhi wo qae'yl nahi hota
Or apni khamoshi k bhi ma'ani chor jata hay
Bharosa jis pe ho uss se tawaqo koi mat rakhna
Yehi ik sa'eban be-saa'ebani chor jata hay
Bichar kar bhi hum aise shakhs se bichra nahi karte
Jo ek fiqra ada kar k kahani chor jata hay
Ghalib mout bhi koi kam khubsurat nahi hogi
Jo is ko dekhta hay zindagi chor jata hay
