daulat-e-dahr sab lutai hai
main ne dil ki kamai khai hai

ek lamhe ko tir karne mein
main ne ek zindagi ganwai hai

wo jo sarmaya-e-dil-o-jaan thi
ab wahi aarzu parai hai

tu hai aakhir kahan ki aaj mujhe
be-tarah apni yaad aai hai

jaan-e-jaan tujh se du-badu ho kar
main ne khud se shikast khai hai

ishq mere guman mein yaran
dil ki ek zor aazmai hai

us mein rah kar bhi main nahin us mein
jaaniye dil mein kya samai hai

mauj-e-baad-e-saba pe ho ke sawar
wo shamim-e-khayal aai hai

sharm kar tu ki dasht-e-haalat mein
teri laila ne khak udai hai

bik nahin pa raha tha so main ne
apni qimat bahut badhai hai

wo jo tha 'jaun' wo kahin bhi na tha
husn ek khwab ki judai hai
