jo guzarta hai guzar jae ji
aaj wo kar len ki bhar jae ji

aaj ki shab yahin jina marna
jis ko jaana ho wo ghar jae ji

is gali se nahin jaana hum ko
aan rukhsat ho ki sar jae ji

waqt ne kar diya jo karna tha
koi marta hai to mar jae ji

shakh-e-gul mauj-e-hawa raqsan hain
phul bikhre to bikhar jae ji

manzaron ke bhi pare hain manzar
aankh jo ho to nazar jae ji

samt kya rah kya manzil kaisi
chal pado aap jidhar jae ji

apni hi soch pe chalna chahe
apni hi soch se dar jae ji

ye ajab baat hai aksar 'jawed'
jis se roken wahi kar jae ji
