sahib-e-mehr-o-wafa arz-o-sama kyun chup hai

kamal-e-admi ki intiha hai

nigar-e-subh ki ummid mein pighalte hue

ek main bhi hun kulah-daron ke bich

ab tu ho kisi rang mein zahir to mujhe kya

suKHan mein sahl nahin jaan nikal kar rakhna

wo raat be-panah thi aur main gharib tha

viran sarae ka diya hai

kucha-e-ishq se kuchh KHwab uTha kar le aae

tu apni aawaz mein gum hai main apni aawaz mein chup

zamin jab bhi hui karbala hamare liye

main jis mein kho gaya hun mera KHwab hi to hai

KHwab hi KHwab kab talak dekhun

wahshaten kaisi hain KHwabon se ulajhta kya hai

dukhe hue hain hamein aur ab dukhao mat
