wo chandni wo chand sa paikar utar de
pahlu mein koi khwab ka manzar utar de

mahfuz ab nahin hain mere dil ki sarhaden
kah do kisi ghanim se lashkar utar de

kab se sharik hun main jihad-e-hayat mein
bahr-e-najat koi mera sar utar de

tute tera khayal to bistar ki har shikan
aankhon mein jaise nind ke nashtar utar de

dil se lagae kaun mera gham meri khushi
har shakhs dil ka bojh samajh kar utar de

jumbish jab us ke lab ko hui to pata chala
chatke kali to ruh mein nashtar utar de

kab se uthae phirta hun tanhaiyon ka bojh
dil se koi ye dard ka patthar utar de

ai 'badr' ashk-e-gham ke alawa koi to ho
tira-shabi mein jo mah-o-akhtar utar de
