do dilo ko yeh duneeya milne hee nahee detee
aashao kee kaliyo ko khilane hee nahee detee
ik bag me kya dekha bulbul wahan rota tha
aur pas khada malee kuchh har pirota tha
dil chir key ik phul kaa kush kitna woh hota tha
bulbul tha tadap jata jab sui chabhota tha
dukh sah naa saka bulbul kuchh kah naa saka bulbul
phir behne lage aansu aur kehne lage aansu, kya?
do dilo ko yeh duneeya
tum mujhase yeh phuchho ge kya phul kee halat thee
rutha huwa malee tha bigadee huyee kismat thee
aankho me toh aansu the bechain tabiyat thee
sunsan tha dil usaka barabad muhabbat thee
bulbul se juda ho kar malee se kafa ho kar
kanton me laga rahane aur phul laga kehne, kya?
do dilo ko yeh duneeya
