wahi qasmen shab-e-na-mo'atabar ki
wahi rasmen hain shahr-e-sang-dil ki

wahi diwar-e-be-rauzan ki jis ko
zabanen din dhale tak chatti hain

kise puchhen birun-e-sahn kya hai
kahan kis khet mein gandum ugi hai

kahan kis jhil mein suraj gira hai
kahan hain teri zirhen meri dhaalen

kahan wo chand hai jis ki talab mein
khala mein phenk din chehron ne aankhen

kahan hai is ghani diwar-e-shab mein
ikahri int ki chunwai puchhen

kahan se koi khisht-e-gham ukhaden
kahan diwar mein rauzan banaen
