nikle teri duniya ke sitam aur tarah ke
darkar mere dil ko the gham aur tarah ke

tum aur tarah ke sahi hum aur tarah ke
ho jaen bas ab qaul-o-qasam aur tarah ke

but-khane ka manzar ba-khuda aaj hi dekha
the mere tasawwur mein sanam aur tarah ke

karti hain mere dil se wo khamosh nigahen
kuchh ramz ishaaron se bhi kam aur tarah ke

gham hote rahe dil mein kam-o-besh wa-lekin
besh aur tarah ke hue kam aur tarah ke

mayus talab jaan ke is dasht-e-hawas mein
yaron ne diye hain mujhe dam aur tarah ke

rahti hai kisi aur taraf aas nazar ki
hain waqt ke hathon mein alam aur tarah ke

rahbar ka to andaz-e-qadam aur hi kuchh tha
hain qafile walon ke qadam aur tarah ke

kuchh aur hain us husn-e-basanti ki adaen
hain naz nigaran-e-ajam aur tarah ke

kahte ho ki phiki si runakhi si hain ghazlen
lo sher sunaen tumhein hum aur tarah ke

ye kis ne kiya yaad kahan jate ho 'haqqi'
kuchh aaj to padte hain qadam aur tarah ke
