Ittifaq se dikha, mujhe laga ajnabi hai tu,
Pehli nazar mein hi dil mein bas gaya, jaane kya hai tu,
Mera ishq-e-haqeeqi, mera Khuda hai tu,
Meri har dua ka jaise ek silsila hai tu.

Zamaane se chhupkar tujhe nihaara karte hain,
Tere deedaar ko dar-ba-dar maara-maara phirte hain,
Fajr ki namaaz mein duaon mein tujhe maanga karte hain,
Ai sanam, tujh par apni jaan nisaar karte hain.

Kabhi sochte hain apni mohabbat ka izhaar karein,
Apne darmiyaan ke is rishte se tujhe aagaah karein,
Khuda jaane kab humein ye himmat aayegi,
Na jaane ye ishq ki talab aur kitna sataayegi.

Kabhi darakht par chadhkar tujhe khoja karte hain,
Kabhi kheton ki ghaas mein chhupkar tujhe dekha karte hain,
Kabhi tere darwaaze par dastak diya karte hain,
Phir bhi tu na samjhe—hum kis tarah mohabbat kiya karte hain.

Hamaari khaamoshi mein bhi ishq ki zubaan hai,
Hamaari har nazar mein tera hi armaan hai,
Tu saamne ho to dil ko kahaan aaraam hai,
Tu samjhe ya na samjhe—yahi hamaara ishq-e-bayaan hai.
