teri yaaden hain aur tanhaiyan hain
ghazab ki anjuman-araiyan hain

kahan hum aur kahan ye lazzat-e-gham
ye sab teri karam-farmaiyan hain

mahakti hai teri sanson ki khushbu
jahan tak ruh ki gahraiyan hain

main rah-e-shauq mein tanha nahin hun
mere hamrah kuchh parchhaiyan hain

sar-e-sham aaj kyon nind aa rahi hai
ye kis ki yaad ki purwaiyan hain

ab is ehsas ko kya nam dije
bhari mahfil hai aur tanhaiyan hain

wahan tute hue dil bhi milenge
jahan bhi anjuman-araiyan hain

kabhi dekha tha hum ne 'shan' un ko
mata-e-dil wahi ranaiyan hain
