sitare aane lage ehtimam karne ko ba-zid hai chand bhi kuchh tam-jham karne ko chaman men bad-e-saba kar rahi hai

sahra sahra bhatak rahi huun main ab nazar aa ki thak rahi huun main bichh rahe hain sarab rahon men

tirgi badh rahi hai bahar ki raat bhi be-charagh hai ghar ki abginon ki tarah tuut gai jab imarat banai

sab kuchh hai ayaan phir bhi hai parda mere aage duniya hai tiri ek karishma mire aage main pyaas ki

raushni si dil ke zakhmon men utar aane ko hai ai shab-e-gham phir tira chehra nazar aane ko hai asman

pattharon se dosti kya bha gai ik nadi apni ravani kha gai der tak qismat padi soti rahi dhuup ghar

jo mushkil raste hain un ko yuun hamvar karna hai hamen jazbon ki kashti se samundar paar karna hai hamare
