Sunā hai log use aañkh bhar ke dekhte haiñ,
So us ke shahr meñ kuchh din Thahar ke dekhte haiñ.
Sunā hai bole to bātoñ se phuul jhaḌte haiñ,
Ye baat hai to chalo baat kar ke dekhte haiñ.
Sunā hai raat use chāñd taktā rahtā hai,
Sitāre bām-e-falak se utar ke dekhte haiñ.
Bas ik nigāh se luTtā hai qāfila dil kā,
So rah-ravān-e-tamannā bhī Dar ke dekhte haiñ.
Ab us ke shahr meñ Thahreñ ki kuuch kar jaa.eñ,
'Farāz' aao sitāre safar ke dekhte haiñ.

Hum bhool gaye har baat magar tera pyaar nahin bhoole,
Kya kya hua dil ke saath, magar tera pyaar nahin bhoole.
These are not just words but a mirror of existence

میں نے یوں ہی کہا تھا تجھے میری زندگی کا چاند
تو نے ستاروں میں ہی کیوں اپنا آشیانہ بنا لیا
میں حیران تھا، تیرا چہرہ ہے یا کھلا ہوا گلاب
تو نے ہر بھنورے کو کیوں اپنی طرف کھینچ لیا
میں مدہوش تھا، تیری ہنسی کو جام کہہ بیٹھا
تو نے ہر محفل کو کیوں مے خانہ بنا دیا
میں عاشق تھا، تیری ہر ادا کو محبت سمجھ بیٹھا
تو نے انتظار کو ہی کیوں میرا نصیب بنا دیا

اِک نہ اِک روز تو رُخصت کرتا
مُجھ سے کِتنی ہی مُحبّت کرتا
سب رُتیں آ کے چلی جاتیں ہیں
موسمِ غم بھی تو ہجرت کرتا
بھیڑیے مُجھ کو کہاں پا سکتے ؟
وُہ اگر میری حفاظت کرتا
میرے لہجے میں غرور آیا تھا
اُس کو حق تھا کہ شکایت کرتا
کُچھ تو تھی میری خطا ورنہ وُہ کیوں
اِس طرح ترکِ رفاقت کرتا
اور اُس سے نہ رہی کوئی طلب
بس ،،، مِرے پیار کی عزت کرتا

Though she is advanced in age,
And her years show on life's page,
Yet to me who looks her way,
The "world" seems young and beautiful each day
