baaton se siwa hoti hai kuchh wahshat-e-dil aur

thak ke patthar ki tarah baiTha hun raste mein zafar

aa mere chand raat suni hai

dur ho kar bhi sunin tumne hikayat-e-wafa

hai gulu-gir bahut raat ki pahnai bhi

zahr hai mere rag-o-pai mein mohabbat shayad

unki mahfil mein zafar log mujhe chahte hain

pani ko aag kah ke mukar jaana chahiye

ek bhi aaftab ban na saka

sans lene ko hi jina nahin kahte hain zafar

aankhon mein tere jalwe liye phirte hain hum log

hae ye tawil o sard raaten
