lahu se mere tapke hai namak aahista aahista
ajab ye raushni hai jis se har jaanib andhera hai

garm raaton ke aangan se pare mera basera hai
main apne khali kamron ke dar-o-diwar se tar hun

main apne khwab mein rakkha hua ek khali bistar hun
lahu se mere tapke hai namak aahista aahista

mujhe hai ilm main hun jism ek be-kar sae ka
mere alfaz diwaron se lag ke tut jate hain

kabhi lamhe hum apne pichhe chhut jate hain
lahu se mere tapke hai namak aahista aahista

mere inkar se hai dard mein farawani
ki jaise hon kai suraj magar phir bhi andhera ho

tumhaari mehrbani ye batao kaun ho tum kyon
tumhaare ghar se thoda dur haiwanon ka dera hai

lahu se mere tapke hai namak aahista aahista
kabhi ek ret par chalti hui kashti kabhi hum hain

jo apne bazuon par bandh kar patwar chalte hain
falak hai ya ki apne sar ke andar phailta sa kuchh

kabhi is par chalte hain kabhi us par chalte hain
lahu se mere tapke hai namak aahista aahista

sahar se sham tak phir subh tak aahista aahista
