Zara phir say kehna
Seher aasar
Barish ke aawaz
Itnay khwab kahan

Hum us kay hain.

Mujhe Khud Se Hain
Shikaytain, Mujhe
Zindagi Se Gilaa Nahin
Ke Jo Chaha Mene Woh
Paa Liya,
Nahin Aesa
Kuch Jo Mila Nahin. Mere
Aas Paas Hai Roshni,
Mere Raaston Mein
Chirag Hain..

Mujhe Khud Se Hain
Shikaytain, Mujhe
Zindagi Se Gilaa Nahin
Ke Jo Chaha Mene Woh
Paa Liya, Nahin Aesa
Kuch Jo Mila Nahin
Mere Aas Paas Hai
Roshni, Mere Raaston
Mein Chirag Hain
Yeh Tere Karam Ka Hai
Mojzaa, Meri Justuju Ka
Silaa Nahin
Teri Aankh Se Jo
Haseen Ho, Woh Nigaah
Jag Main Bani Nahin
Tere Rukh Ko Jis Se
Misaal Doon, Koi Aesa
Phool Khilaa Nahin
Yeh Jo Teri Zulf Ka Hai
Haashia, Yeh Jo Tera
Chehra Hai Khushnuma
Koi Raat Aesi Siyaah
Nahin, Kisi Subaah Mein
Yeh Jala Nahin
Yeh Jo Mehr-O-Maa Ki
Hain Haaltain! Yeh Jo
Aayino Ki Hain Hairtain
Hain Azzal Se Sab Yeh
Isi Tarah, Koi Apni Jagha
Se Hillaa Nahin

Hm Log Na Thy Aisy
Hain Jaisy Nazar Aaty
Ay Waqt Gwqhi Dy
Ye Shahr Na Tha Aisa
Ye Rog Na Thy Aisy
Diwar Na Thy Rishty
Zandan Na Thi Basti
Khaljan Na Thi Hasti
Un Mot Na Thi Sasti
Ye Aaj Jo Surat Hy
Halat Na Thy Aisy
Tafrek Na Thi Aise
Sanjog Na Thy Aisy
Ay Waqt Gwahi Dy
Hm Log Na Thy Aisy

Un Jheel Se Gehri
Ankhon Me
Ik Shaam Kbhi Abaad
To Ho

Us Jheel Kinare Pal 2 Pal
Ik Khawab Ka Nilaa
Phool Khele

Kisi Rooz Kbhi Hum
Shaam Dhale
Wo Phool Baha Dain

Lehron Mei
Phir Us Phool K
Behte Rangon Mei
Jis Waqt Larazta
CHAAND Chale

Un Ankhon Mei
Us Pal Ki Koi Yaad To Ho

Un Jheel Se Gehri
Ankhon Mei
Ik Shaam
Kbhi Abaad To Ho

Phir Chahe Umar-E-
Samandar Ki
Har Mooj
Pareshan Ho Jaae
Phir Chahe Ankh K
Dareechon Se
Har Khawab
Garezan Ho Jaae
Phir Chahe Phool Se
Chehre Ka
Har Dard
Namaayan Ho Jaae

Us Jheel Kinare Wo Roop
Nagar
Kbhi Ejaad To Ho
Din Raat K Aaine Se Wo
Aks
Kbhi Azaad To Ho

Un Jheel Se Gehri
Ankhon Mei
Ik Shaam
Kbhi Abaad To Ho
