dar-o-diwar pe shaklen si banane aai
phir ye barish meri tanhai churane aai

zindagi bap ki manind saza deti hai
rahm-dil man ki tarah maut bachane aai

aaj kal phir dil-e-barbaad ki baaten hain wahi
hum to samjhe the ki kuchh aql thikane aai

dil mein aahat si hui ruh mein dastak gunji
kis ki khush-bu ye mujhe mere sirhane aai

main ne jab pahle-pahal apna watan chhoda tha
dur tak mujh ko ek aawaz bulane aai

teri manind teri yaad bhi zalim nikli
jab bhi aai hai mera dil hi dukhane aai
