Aaj phirse kyun yaad aa gaya koi
Aaj phirse kyun rula gaya koi

Dubo sakey na paimano mein gum
Inmey bhi aab ghula gaya koi

Tumhare hi naam ka wasta dekar
Faasla aur badhakar gaya koi

Ab toh maazi kay zakhm bharey na the
Ab kahan phir sey yeh aa gaya koi

Dikha kar mujhko teri hi moorat
Kaisi ibaadat sikha gaya koi

yun uth ti hai har aahat par nigah
Jaise shayad kay aa gaya koi

Tu bhi kya yaad karega O ‘Talab'
Aaj tujhko hi bhula gaya koi
