safar mein koi rukawaT nahin gada ke liye

gard mein aT rahe hain ehsasat

ghurub-e-mehr ka matam hai gulistanon mein

tum ai rais! ab na agar aur magar karo

zamin par raushni hi raushni hai

siyah hai dil-e-giti siyah-tar ho jae

KHamosh zindagi jo basar kar rahe hain hum

duniya ko kya KHabar? meri duniya phir aa gai

ye karbala hai nazr-e-bala hum hue ki tum

ye shahr shahr-e-bala bhi hai kina-saz ke sath

Dhal gai hasti-e-dil yun teri ranai mein

mahjur-e-har-anjuman hain hum log

kahin se saz-e-shikasta ki phir sada aai

apne ko talash kar raha hun

ye faqat shorish-e-hawa to nahin
