kyuuñ darein zindagi men kya hogaa kuchh na hogaa to tajurba hogaa

ilaaj apna karate phir rahe ho jaane kis kis se mohabbat kar ke dekho na mohabbat kyun nahin karte

tum un ke wa'de ka zikr un se kyun karo ghalib ye kya ki tum kaho aur vo kahein ki yaad nahin

din dhal gaya aur raat guzarne ki aas men suraj nadi men doob gaya ham gilaas men

padi rahne do insaano ki laashen zameen ka bojh halka kyun karen ham

mar ke paaya shaheed ka rutba meri is zindagi kii umr daraaz

suboot hai ye mohabbat ki saada-laohi ka jab us ne vaa'da kiya ham ne e'tibaar

suboot hai ye mohabbat ki saada-laohi ka jab us ne vaa'da kiya ham ne e'tibaar kiya

baadbaan naaz se lahara ke chali baad-e-muraad kaarwaan eed manaa qaafila-salaar aaya

dil ki choton ne kabhi chain se rahne na diya jab chali sard hawa main ne tujhe yaad kiya
