ek ruthne ki hum ko ada tak nahin aai
dil tut gaya aur sada tak nahin aai

rahon pe charaghon ko sajaya hi nahin aaj
aaj aandhi to kya baad-e-saba tak nahin aai

kya mangna tha hum ko bhala aisa ki is bar
hath utthe magar lab pe dua tak nahin aai

ghairon ne wafa ki to bahut dukh hua hum ko
apnon se hamein bu-e-wafa tak nahin aai

pyase rahe kitne hi meri pyas ke bais
barish to bahut dur ghata tak nahin aai
