log sunkar waah-waahi karte hain har baar hi roz hi rota hooñ ab to main kisi sur-taal men

kabhi to chaunk ke dekhe koi hamaari taraf kisi ki aankh men ham ko bhi intizaar dikhe

khabaab aankhoñ men band kar lete baat gar dil ki chand kar lete aap bhi ho hi jaate deewane gar kisi ko pasand kar lete

kisi gali men kiraye pe ghar liya usne phir us gali men gharo ke kiraye badhne lage

zindagi bhar ke li.e dil pe nishaani pad jaa.e baat aisi na likho likh ke mitaani pad jaa.e

us se badh kar kiya milega aur inaam-e-junoon ab to vo bhi kah rahe hain apna deewaana mujhe

kuchh is ke sanwar jaane ki tadbeer nahin hai duniya hai tiri zulf-e-girah-geer nahin hai

har haqeeqat hai ek husn hafiz aur har husn ik haqeeqat hai

aasaan nahin marhala-e-tark-e-wafa bhi muddat hui ham is ko bhulaane men lage hain

us dushman-e-wafa ko dua de raha hooñ main meraa na ho sakaa vo kisi ka to ho gaya
