dur kya shama kabhi rahti hai parwane se
aap kyun ruth gae apne hi diwane se

jis tarah mai chhalak utthe kabhi paimane se
aap yun dur hue apne hi mastane se

pyar ki aag mein jalne ka maza hai kaisa
kya bataega koi puchhiye parwane se

mai-kade ki is udasi se pata lagta hai
tishna-lab uth gaya shayad koi maikhane se

raat baqi hai abhi jaane ki jaldi kya hai
sab chala jaega ek tere chale jaane se

lag gai kis ki nazar daur-e-taraqqi pe khuda
aaj apne hi nazar aate hain begane se
