raat aai hai guzar jaegi
raushni ban ke bikhar jaegi

han yunhi chand ko takte rahna
chandni dil mein utar jaegi

lazzat-e-dard bacha kar rakhna
nikhat-e-jaan hai bikhar jaegi

karb ki aag laga lo dil se
kal khuda jaane kidhar jaegi

isi raste pe baha apna lahu
isi raste se sahar jaegi

jism katna tha ye malum na tha
yun meri zat bikhar jaegi

main ne ji-bhar ke tujhe dekhna hai
ab teri shakl nikhar jaegi
