ye khwab sare
abhi jo aankhon mein so rahe hain

ye jag utthe to kya karoge
to kya karoge jo khwab sare

tumhaari aankhon se bahar aa kar
takhil ki be-karan faza mein

kisi sunahre hasin lamhe ko qaid kar len
kisi ki zulfon mein phul tanke

kis ke honton pe gungunaen
kisi ke shanon pe hath rakh den

kisi ke pahlu mein baith jaen
to kya karoge

to kya karoge jo khwab sare
palat ke mazi mein laut jaen

har ek manzar har ek paikar
har ek kucha har ek dagar par

junun-ba-daman tumhein nachaen
tumhaari wahshat ko aazmaen

kisi khandar ki shikasta chaukhat pe baith jaen
siyah taqon pe momi shamen

tumhaari yaadon mein jhilmilaen
koi hayula koi sarapa

tumhein pukare
tumhaari aankhon pe hath rakh de

gulab-dali ka haar koi
tumhaare talwon mein gudgudae

laharya aanchal ka koi tukda
hawa mein udta hua sa aae

tumhaare ashkon se bhig jae
to kya karoge

to kya karoge jo khwab sare
tumhaari aankhon se ashk ban kar

tumhaare daman pe phail jaen
lahu rulaen

to kya karoge jo khwab sare
palat ke mazi mein laut jaen!
