wo husn ko jalwa-gar karenge
aaraish-e-baam-o-dar karenge

har goshe mein hogi khud-numai
har zarre ko rahguzar karenge

hans hans ke karenge chaarasazi
saman-e-dil-o-nazar karenge

hum bhi sar-e-rah muntazir hain
dekhen kab idhar nazar karenge

afsana-e-gham tawil hai dost
is baat ko mukhtasar karenge

hai sham-e-firaq sakht tarik
is sham ki ab sahar karenge

afsurda hain zindagi ke tewar
kab tak yunhi hum basar karenge

aaega 'tabassum' un labon par
aansu bhi kabhi asar karenge
