ek fasana sun gae ek kah gae
main jo roya muskura kar rah gae

ya tere mohtaj hain ai khun-e-dil
ya inhin aankhon se dariya bah gae

maut un ka munh hi takti rah gai
jo teri furqat ke sadme sah gae

tu salamat hai to hum ai dard-e-dil
mar hi jaenge jo jite rah gae

phir kisi ki yaad ne tadpa diya
phir kaleja tham kar hum rah gae

uth gae duniya se 'fani' ahl-e-zauq
ek hum marne ko zinda rah gae
