zara si der jale jal ke rakh ho jae
wo raushni de bhale jal ke rakh ho jae

wo aaftab jise sab salam karte hain
jo waqt par na dhale jal ke rakh ho jae

main dur ja ke kahin bansuri bajaunga
bala se rome jale jal ke rakh ho jae

wo ek lams-e-gurezan hai aatish-e-be-soz
mujhe lagae gale jal ke rakh ho jae

koi charagh bache subh tak to tariki
usi charag-tale jal ke rakh ho jae
