raaz-e-ulfat chhupaa ke dekh liyaa

raaz-e-ulfat chhupaa ke dekh liyaa
Faiz Ahmed Faiz

raaz-e-ulfat chhupaa ke dekh liyaa
dil bahot kuchh jalaa ke dekh liyaa

aur kyaa dekhane ko baaqii hai
aap se dil laga ke dekh liyaa

wo mere hoke bhii mere na hue
unako apanaa banaa ke dekh liyaa

aaj unakii nazar me.n kuchh hamane
sabakii nazare.n bachaa ke dekh liyaa

'Faiz', taqmiil-e-Gam bhii ho na sakii
ishq ko aazamaa ke dekh liyaa

The following sher is found in earlier editions of naqshe-fariyadi.

aas us dar se TuuTatii hii nahii.n
jaa ke dekhaa, na jaa ke dekh liyaa
