dil mera nang raha karta hai
rang be-rang raha karta hai

har ghadi mujh se wo turk-e-khunrez
barsar-e-jang raha karta hai

tujh se puchhen to ye kahna qasid
zist se tang raha karta hai

ashk-bari se mera dida-e-tar
sahil-e-gang raha karta hai

dekh kar tujh ko ba-chashm-e-hairat
aaina dang raha karta hai

ghair ham-palla ho mera kya zikr
misl-e-pasang raha karta hai

ghair se ghair hue surat-e-bazm
aur hi rang raha karta hai

dost ho ya ki adu ho 'sabir'
sab se yak-rang raha karta hai
