udas dil hai ki un ki nazar nahin hoti
baghair shams ke tab-e-qamar nahin hoti

kuchh aise log bhi duniya mein hum ne dekhe hain
sama bhi jate hain dil mein khabar nahin hoti

utho to dast-ba-saghar chalo to shisha-ba-dosh
ye mai-kada hai yahan yun guzar nahin hoti

kabhi kabhi mujhe un ka khayal aata hai
kabhi kabhi mujhe apni khabar nahin hoti

shab-e-hayat hai saghar mein dub ja 'ishrat'
ye aisi raat hai jis ki sahar nahin hoti
