Mere dil ko ek shaks ne pathar sa bana diya,

Mere dil ko ek shaks ne pathar sa bana diya,
Yaaron ek shaks ne ‘Gulzar’ ko Khamosh bana diya..

Dil se muskurana ab mujhe guzre zamane ki baat lagti hai,
Mohabat main doobe dil ko kisi ne askhon main tairna seekha diya,
Yaaron ek shaks ne ‘suzain’ ko Khamosh bana diya..

Dil se dua nikalti hai kay kash main zindagi ko peeche le ja sakti,
Teri yaad ne mujhe na mumkin duaein mangna bhi seekha diya,
Yaaron ek shaks ne ‘suzain’ ko Khamosh bana diya..

Kabhi tere khaton main ehsaas mehsoos karti thi, aj bas lafz nazar aate hai,
Tujse judai ne mujhe zinda lash bankar jeena seekha diya,
Yaaron ek shaks ne ‘suzain’ ko Khamosh bana diya..

Jab haath chorrna tha mera toh ae Zalim tune thama kyun,
Kisi ki mohabat kay badle tune ashkon ka tohfa diya kyun,
Ae Zalim tune 'suzain' ko kyun yeh sila diya,
Ae Zalim tune 'suzain' ko kyun rula diya,
Kyun tune 'suzain’ ko Khamosh bana diya..!
