mere dil, mere musafir
hua phir se hukm sadir

ki watan-badar hon hum tum
den gali gali sadaen

karen rukh nagar nagar, ka
ki suragh koi paen

kisi yar-e-nama-bar ka
har ek ajnabi se puchhen

jo pata tha apne ghar ka
sar-e-ku-e-na-shanayan

hamein din se raat karna
kabhi is se baat karna

kabhi us se baat karna
tumhein kya kahun ki kya hai

shab-e-gham buri bala hai
hamein ye bhi tha ghanimat

jo koi shumar hota
hamein kya bura tha marna

agar ek bar hota!
