wo shakhs jis ne khud apna lahu piya hoga
jiya to hoga magar kas tarah jiya hoga

tumhaare shahr mein aane ki jis ko hasrat thi
tumhaare shahr mein aa kar wo ro pada hoga

kisi ki yaad ki aahat si hai dar-e-dil par
kisi ne aaj mera nam le liya hoga

wo ajnabi teri banhon mein jo raha shab bhar
kise khabar ki wo din bhar kahan raha hoga

tumhaare sehn-e-chaman mein khila hua ghuncha
kise khabar meri qismat pe hans raha hoga
