jab se un ki mehrbani ho gai
zindagi ab raat-rani ho gai

us ne manga zindagi saughat mein
nam us ke zindagani ho gai

ibtida-e-zindagi ki subh se
sham tak puri kahani ho gai

ruthna hansna manana pyar mein
zindagi kitni suhani ho gai

kho gae masrufiyat ki bhid mein
khatm is mein zindagani ho gai

main bhi un ka hun diwana is tarah
jis tarah 'mira' diwani ho gai

us ne manga zindagi saughat mein
nam us ke zindagani ho gai

na-khuda jab zindagi ka wo 'raza'
par apni zindagani ho gai
