Dil meraa machaltaa kyun hai

hai nahi mohabbat unse to dil meraa machaltaa kyun hai
milne ko betaab ho ke yeh dil meraa fir jalta kyun hai

hai pyaas mere dil mein bahut, seene mein lagi aag hai
samundar mein doob ke bhi lahoo meraa ubaltaa kyun hai

kuch to un mein baat hai, kuch to un mein khaas hai
uss hasi ko dhoondne dil raahon mein nikaltaa kyun hai

geeli un ki aankhen hain do, bheege un ke honth hain
barsaat mein bhi bheeg ke jism yeh pighaltaa kyun hai

chhoo lun unko ek baar, main baahon mein bhar loon unhe
pyaar unhein karne ko meraa dil yeh ab machaltaa kyun hai

sharaab ki botal hain woh, nashaa un mein khoob hai
nashe mein doob ke bhi 'Hriday' aaj sambhaltaa kyun hai

kadmon ko apne roktaa hoon, aage badhne se toktaa hoon
suntaa nahi baat meri, khud-ba-khud yeh chaltaa kyun hai
