teri aankhon mein rang-e-masti hai
han mujhe etibar-e-hasti hai

mera hona bhi koi hona hai
meri hasti bhi koi hasti hai

jaan ka rog hai ye girya-e-gham
umr bhar ye ghata barasti hai

jis tarah chandni mazaron par
dil pe yun be-kasi barasti hai

dil-e-viran ko dekhte kya ho
ye wahi aarzu ki basti hai

'saif' is zindagi ko kya kahiye
ek mayyat-ba-dosh hasti hai
