wo mahakti palkon ki ot se koi tara chamka tha raat mein
meri band mutthi na kholiye wahi koh-e-nur hai hat mein

main tamam tare utha utha ke gharib logon mein bant dun
kabhi ek raat wo aasman ka nizam den mere hat mein

abhi sham tak mere bagh mein kahin koi phul khila na tha
mujhe khushbuon mein basa gaya tera pyar ek hi raat mein

tere sath itne bahut se din to palak jhapakte guzar gae
hui sham khel hi khel mein gai raat baat hi baat mein

koi ishq hai ki akela ret ki shawl odh ke chal diya
kabhi baal-bachchon ke sath aa ye padaw lagta hai raat mein

kabhi sat rangon ka phul hun kabhi dhup hun kabhi dhul hun
main tamam kapde badal chuka tere mausamon ki baraat mein
