rah-e-ulfat pe chal ke dekho to
apne gham se nikal ke dekho to

jis taraf dekho be-qarari hai
sari duniya hi gham ki mari hai

yun to kitne hi khub-surat hain
ek duje ki hum zarurat hain

teri yaadon mein kho rahe hain hum
apni palken bhigo rahe hain hum

meri baaton ka e'tibar karo
mere mahbub mujh se pyar karo

dar-haqiqat jo 'ishq karte hain
phir jo chahen wo kar guzarte hain

wo mohabbat mein na-mukammal hain
husn par marne wale pagal hain

zindagani hai khatm hona hai
husn fani hai khatm hona hai

be-zabanon ki hum nida hote
kash kirdar par fida hote

khud ye anjam kar ke baithe hain
'ishq-e-na-kaam kar ke baithe hain
