machlenge un ke aane pe jazbaat sainkadon
hans bolne ki hongi hikayat sainkadon

mayyat uthane koi bhi aaya na baad-e-marg
sunte the zindagi mein meri baat sainkadon

tum the to zindagi ka na koi sawal tha
ab janm le rahe hain sawalat sainkadon

kyun us nigah-e-mast ki sab mangte hain khair
aabaad aur bhi hain kharabaat sainkadon

chamke jo tere nur se din-raat the wahi
aane ko yun to aae hain din-raat sainkadon

parda-nawaz husn ke qurban jaiye
ek ek hijab mein hain hijabaat sainkadon

wo baat koi bhi na kahega jo hum kahen
tum jo kaho kahenge wahi baat sainkadon

karte hain arz-e-wasl pe han-hun aji nahin
yani sawal ek hai jawabaat sainkadon

bante hain zindagi ke fasane unhin se 'charkh'
wo hain to zindagi ki riwayat sainkadon
