ashk aankhon mein dabdabae hain
bhule afsane yaad aae hain

hum ne daman ko tar-tar kiya
mausam-e-gul ne gul khilae hain

aksar auqat roghni ke liye
hum ne dil ke diye jalae hain

ranj bakhshe hain aise apnon ne
hum ko begane yaad aae hain

chand-roza hayat ki khatir
zindagi-bhar fareb khae hain

mai-kasho ek jam taziman
hazrat-e-waiz aaj aae hain

waqt hi ka to pher hai 'bismil'
kal jo apne the ab parae hain
