dastan hai hasin shararon ki
zindagi aag hai chanaron ki

shab-e-gham ke ghane andheron mein
kho gai raushni sitaron ki

main khizan ko laga chuka hun gale
ab zarurat nahin bahaaron ki

aap ki meri dosti yun hai
jaise lahron se ho kinaron ki

be-sahaaro yunhi jiye jao
laj rah jaegi sahaaron ki

un ke gham mein guzar gai 'nayyar'
zindagi hum jigar-figaron ki
