aaj sunte hain ki mere ghar wo yar aane ko hai
apne qabu mein dil-e-be-ikhtiyar aane ko hai

bulbulen hain naghma-zan phula hua hai baghban
bagh mein khilti hain kaliyan kya bahaar aane ko hai

dekhta hun chashm-e-nargis aaj sharmai hui
kya tumhaari did ka ummid-war aane ko hai

misl-e-taswir-e-khayali murgh-e-bustan hain khamosh
baghban gulshan mein koi dil-figar aane ko hai

ai 'jamila' fasl-e-gul aai chala sahra ko main
mehman ban kar mere talwon mein khar aane ko hai
