ai shab-e-gham jo hum bhi ghar jaen
shahr kis ke supurd kar jaen

kitni atraf kitne raste hain
hum akele kidhar kidhar jaen

ek hi ghar mein qaid hai sultan
hum bhikari nagar nagar jaen

aankh jhapkin to itne arse mein
jaane kitne baras guzar jaen

surat aisi bigad li apni
wo hamein dekh len to dar jaen
