hansi ki aankh mein phaila nami ka rang dekha hai
andheron mein lipatta raushni ka rang dekha hai

sada pahlu mein bhi madd-e-muqabil ki tarah rahna
kisi ki dosti mein dushmani ka rang dekha hai

badi gahri mohabbat ki dhanak hai jin nigahon mein
unhi mein gahe gahe dil-lagi ka rang dekha hai

kitabon se nikalta hai to pahchana nahin jata
wagarna samne aksar khushi ka rang dekha hai

chura kar le na jae faslon ki dhup bhi jis ko
kisi par is qadar gahra kisi ka rang dekha hai

ye dekha hai ki gumrahi nishan banti hai manzil ka
taghaful ki dagar mein aagahi ka rang dekha hai

shikasta sokhta-jaan bhi tamanna-e-bahaaran bhi
darakhton par khizan mein aadmi ka rang dekha hai

lage jo dhup ud jae mile barish to bah jae
sabhi rangon se kachcha zindagi ka rang dekha hai

na jaane us pe utrega kabhi thahraw ka mausam
har ek lahza badalta odhni ka rang dekha hai
