dil mein yaad-e-raftagan aabaad hai
warna ye dil bhi kahan aabaad hai

ek main aabaad hun is shahr mein
aur ek mera makan aabaad hai

kis ke ye naqsh-e-qadam hain khak par
kaun aise mein yahan aabaad hai

bab-e-umr-e-raigan ki lauh par
harf-e-ehsas-e-ziyan aabaad hai

mere hone se na hona hai mera
aag jalne se dhuan aabaad hai

raunaq-e-dil ka hai aalam didani
khana-e-awargan aabaad hai

ek daricha us gali mein aaj tak
be-charagh o be-nishan aabaad hai
