shab wahi lekin sitara aur hai
ab safar ka istiara aur hai

ek mutthi ret mein kaise rahe
is samundar ka kinara aur hai

mauj ke mudne mein kitni der hai
naw dali aur dhaara aur hai

jang ka hathiyar tai kuchh aur tha
tir sine mein utara aur hai

matn mein to jurm sabit hai magar
hashiya sare ka sara aur hai

sath to mera zamin deti magar
aasman ka hi ishaara aur hai

dhup mein diwar hi kaam aaegi
tez barish ka sahaara aur hai

haarne mein ek ana ki baat thi
jit jaane mein khasara aur hai

sukh ke mausam ungliyon par gin liye
fasl-e-gham ka goshwara aur hai

der se palken nahin jhapkin meri
pesh-e-jaan ab ke nazara aur hai

aur kuchh pal us ka rasta dekh lun
aasman par ek tara aur hai

had charaghon ki yahan se khatm hai
aaj se rasta hamara aur hai
