bhulne wale tujhe yaad kiya hai barson
dil-e-viran ko yun aabaad kiya hai barson

sath jo de na saka rah-e-wafa mein apna
be-irada bhi use yaad kiya hai barson

gham jahan mein wo rafiq-e-abadi hai apna
jis ne har haal mein dil shad kiya hai barson

bhul sakta hun bhala gardish-e-dauran tujh ko
roz tu ne sitam ijad kiya hai barson

kab giraftar-e-kham-e-gham-e-hijran na raha
kab tere dard ne aazar kiya hai barson

ab bhi 'anwar' pashemani-e-khatir ho na kyun
umr-e-rafta tujhe barbaad kiya hai barson
