Gayi rutoN me to shaam O sehar na the aise
K hum udaas bahut the magar na the aise
Yahaan bhi phool se chehre dikhayi dete the
Yeh ab jo hain, yahi deewaar O dar na the aise
Mile to khair, na milne pe ranjishenN kaisi
K us se apne marasim the par na the aise
RafaaqatoN se mara huN, musaafatoN se nahi
Safar wohi tha magar hum-safar na the aise
HameeN the jo tere aane talak jalay warnaa
Sabhi chiraagh sar e rahguzar na the aise
Dil e tabaah! tujhe aur kya tasalli den
Tere naseeb, tere chara-gar na the aise
