hum bansuri par maut ki gate rahe naghma tera
ai zindagi ai zindagi rutba rahe baala tera

apna muqaddar tha yahi ai mamba-e-asudgi
bas tishnagi bas tishnagi go pas tha dariya tera

is gam se us gam tak zanjir-e-gham ke fasle
manzil to kya hum ko mile, chalta rahe rasta tera

tu kaun tha kya nam tha tujh se hamein kya kaam tha
hai parda-e-dil par abhi dhundla sa ek chehra tera

suraj hai go na-mehrban hai sar pe nila saeban
ai aasman ai aasman daim rahe saya tera
