agar na roen to aankhon pe bojh padta hai
karen jo girya to raaton pe bojh padta hai

parinde chhod ke tanha agar chale jaen
to phir darakht ki shakhon pe bojh padta hai

khata-e-ishq ko ab sirf sochne bhar se
hamari ruh ke chhaalon pe bojh padta hai

ye chand karta hai aaram jab amawas mein
siyah raat mein taron pe bojh padta hai

tum in ko ilm do lekin ye ehtiyat rakho
ho bhaari basta to bachchon pe bojh padta hai

sukut itna hamein ras aa gaya hai ki ab
jo kuchh sunen bhi to kanon pe bojh padta hai

tumhaari yaad ki ujdi hui haweli mein
hai itni dhul ki sanson pe bojh padta hai

hum is khayal se hijrat bhi kar nahin sakte
qadam badhaen to rahon pe bojh padta hai
