wo jo ham-rahi ka ghurur tha wo sawad-e-rah mein jal-bujha

wahan mahfil na sajai jahan KHalwat nahin ki

mulaqaton ka aisa silsila rakkha hai tumne

tumne sach bolne ki jurat ki

wo jo aae the bahut mansab-o-jagir ke sath

purane sahilon par naya git

sal ki aaKHiri shab

ye log ishq mein sachche nahin hain warna hijr

intizar aur dastakon ke darmiyan kaTti hai umr

ajnabi hairan mat hona ki dar khulta nahin

abhi hairat ziyaada aur ujala kam rahega

tamam umr sitare talash karta phira
