din guzarta hai kahan raat kahan hoti hai

wo be-niyaz mujhe uljhanon mein Dal gaya

gham-e-hayat mein koi kami nahin aai

qad o gesu lab-o-ruKHsar ke afsane chale

koi hasrat bhi nahin koi tamanna bhi nahin

dil ke sunsan jaziron ki KHabar laega

tawil raaton ki KHamushi mein meri fughan thak ke so gai hai

lamha lamha shumar kaun kare

koi batlae ki kya hain yaro

gardish-e-jam nahin gardish-e-ayyam to hai

jis rah se bhi guzar gae hum

main dil-zada hun agar dil-figar wo bhi hain

kabhi teri kabhi apni hayat ka gham hai

dil pe jab dard ki uftad paDi hoti hai

dil ke viran raste bhi dekh
