tishnagi aur badhaenge chale jaenge
aap aae bhi to aaenge chale jaenge

muhtamim hum ne sar-e-bazm kahan rahna hai
jab wo uth kar chale jaenge chale jaenge

waqt kam hai ki gham-e-zist pas-e-pusht kiye
jashn gham-khwar manaenge chale jaenge

jab bhi hum khana-ba-doshon se tu uktaega
zindagi sar pe uthaenge chale jaenge

log dhundenge nikal kar hamein un galiyon mein
sirf aawaz lagaenge chale jaenge

hum se diwanon ki aadat hai milenge jab bhi
mil ke roenge rulaenge chale jaenge

ye teri kham-khayali hai ki hum mahfil mein
munh uthae chale aaenge chale jaenge

zindagi bazm-e-sukhan hai jise sunte sunte
apne hisse ka sunaenge chale jaenge

ye to sikha hi nahin aap ki sohbat se ki aap
jab charaghon ko bujhaenge chale jaenge

sar-phire aise hain 'shahid' ki ghurur-e-hasti
tum ko mitti mein milaenge chale jaenge
