ek gosha-e-dil mein jo kisi ke hain makin hum
ye zoam hai goya ki hain wali-e-zamin hum

jari hai dilon ka to wahi rabt-e-nihani
har-chand kahin aur hain wo aur kahin hum

kya hai ye makan kya ye dayar aur ye jahan kya
ye auj hai apna ki jahan wo hain wahin hum

ye moajaza-e-ishq hai ek zinda haqiqat
aate hain nazar aaj jahan bhar mein hamin hum

wan apni rasai na sahi dar to hai us ka
hote nahin aghyar se yun chin-ba-jabin hum

har ek mein nazar aati hain kuchh us ki adaen
ulfat na kisi aur se kar baithe kahin hum

jo chahe kahe iza de ya kuchh kare tazlil
dar chhod ke us ka nahin ja sakte kahin hum

parwana-e-jannat hamein dilwate hain kyun aap
kah to diya sau bar ki jaenge nahin hum

nazzara-e-alam hai bas ek khwab-e-pareshan
bedar hue gar nazar aaenge hamin hum

duniya mein hai nairangi-e-taqdir tamasha
the aabla-pa kal to hain ab takht-nashin hum

uff ek dil-e-'rahbar' pe hasinon ki ye takrar
lalchaen hamin hum ise pa jaen hamin hum
