aashiyan apna bina diwar-o-dar hota nahin
be-murawwat kash ye tera shahar hota nahin

kyun pasheman ho ke tum ne dard-e-dil mujh ko diya
har gunah sangin aisa jaan kar hota nahin

aap ka tha sath to thi zindagi par kya kahen
ab safar aisa hai jis mein ham-safar hota nahin

hai ghazab dhata ajab ye kar-o-bar-e-intizar
raat guzre tare gin, par din basar hota nahin

aae hain sunte ki aisa waqt bhi aata hai jab
ho dawa ya phir dua kuchh kargar hota nahin

duniya se lad jaiye aasan hai kahna huzur
dekhiye har shakhs mein itna jigar hota nahin
