Khushk aankho.N mei.N yaadei.N uski,
Ley aati hai.N paanii kyu.N,
Apni wafaa ki laash par,
Ro’tii hai diwaanii kyu.N.

Masoom chehre hi aksar,
Dil loot liya kartey hai.N,
Khake thokar ye sochtey hai.N,
Kii aisi nadanii kyu.N.

Hijr ki raato.N mei.N har pal,
Yaado.N ke khanjar chaltey hai.N,
Zakhm bante rahe dil par,
Phir bhi dikhti nahi.N koi nishaanii kyu.N.

Gum chupaane ke khaatir,
Mehfil mei.n shaamil hua kartey hai.N,
Khokar khudko apno.N mei.N bhi,
Hojati hu.N khudse begaanii kyu.N.

Bhulau.N kaise dushman-e-jaan ko,
Din raat ye socha kartey hai.N,
Aye KHUDA tu hi bata, Hoti nahi.N sab’pe
Kismat ki meherbaanii kyu.N.
