umr-bhar justuju rahegi kya
aarzu aarzu rahegi kya

nahin hona mukalima tujh se
khud se hi guftugu rahegi kya

raat ai raat sirf raat ki raat
mere pahlu mein tu rahegi kya

shor-e-khamoshi kam nahin hona
raat-bhar haw-hu rahegi kya

tu jo mere gale bhi lag jae
ruh se ruh chhu rahegi kya

khud ko kamre se gar nikal dun main
koi shai faltu rahegi kya

yun bhi tazlil kar ke auron ki
khud teri aabru rahegi kya

to dobara sahar nahin honi
tirgi chaar-su rahegi kya

aisi retili zamin mein 'sahir'
mujh ko tab-e-numu rahegi kya
