ghunche ka jawab ho gaya hai
dil khil ke gulab ho gaya hai

pa kar tab-o-tab soz-e-gham se
aansu dur-e-nab ho gaya hai

kya fikr-e-bahaar o mahfil-e-yar
ab khatm wo bab ho gaya hai

ummid-e-sukun ka zikr-e-rana
sab khwab-o-sarab ho gaya hai

marna bhi nahin hai apne bas mein
jina bhi azab ho gaya hai
