dil kis se mukhatib hai ki viran bahut hai
shaida hai ise dasht ka arman bahut hai

guzre to guzar jae na guzre to qayamat
dil waqt ki is chaal pe hairan bahut hai

ek umr mein khud se meri pahchan hui hai
jati hui umron ko ye pahchan bahut hai

is shahr mein rahte hain bina ruh ke paikar
is shahr mein ji lene ka imkan bahut hai

dil hath se jaega ye jaan bhi na rahegi
kar lije magar ishq mein nuqsan bahut hai

shab sari barasta hai ye chup rahta hai din bhar
kuchh roz se mausam bhi pareshan bahut hai

tu ja nahin paegi ise chhod ke 'mira'
is ghar mein tere nam ka saman bahut hai
