dil ko rah rah ke ye andeshe Darane lag jaaen
vapsi men use mumkin hai zamane lag jaaen
so nahin paaen to sone ki duaen mangen
niind aane lage to khud ko jagane lag jaaen
us ko Dhunden use ik baat batane ke liye
jab vo mil jaae to vo baat chhupane lag jaaen
har december isi vahshat men guzara ki kahin
phir se ankhon men tire khvab na aane lag jaaen
itni takhir se mat mil ki hamen sabr aa jaae
aur phir ham bhi nazar tujh se churane lag jaaen
jiit jaengi havaen ye khabar hote hue
tez andhi men charaghon ko jalane lag jaaen
tum mire shahr men aae to mujhe aisa laga
juun tahi-damanon ke haath khazane lag jaaen
