kabhi bund bund sahab mein use dekhna
kabhi naghma naghma rabab mein use dekhna

kisi kirm-khurda kitab mein use dhundhna
kisi bhulte hue bab mein use dekhna

bade sahl honge milap jannat-e-khwab mein
magar is jahan-e-kharab mein use dekhna

wo jo sahm sahm gaya hai shahr-e-panah mein
mujhe panw dale rikab mein use dekhna

wo ghadi ki hasil-e-umr thi nahin bhulti
kahan phir usi tab-o-tab mein use dekhna
