shama san shab ke mehman hain hum

mil gae apne yar se ab ki

dil bichhaD kar jo chala us but-e-maghrur talak

dil KHuda jaane kis ke pas raha

dil gham se tere laga gae hum

bas ki chun badr-zamana ye ghaTata hai mujhe

teri madad se tera idrak ho sake hai

jaan-o-dil hain udas se mere

wasl ka aish kahan par gham-e-hijran to hai

hum na hanste hain aur na rote hain

ghair ko tum na aankh bhar dekho

itne aansu to na the dida-e-tar ke aage

dekh darwaze se mujhko wo pari-ru haT gai

kyun rang-e-surKH tera ab zard ho gaya hai

nazar karo wahdat o kasrat baham shamil hain shishe mein
