jab aasman par mah-o-aKHtar palaT kar aae

chand se apni yari thi

aur kis ka ghar kushada hai kahan Thahregi raat

kyun na apni KHubi-e-qismat pe itraati hawa

be-tamanna hun KHasta-jaan hun main

KHud sawal aap hi jawab hun main

agle paDaw par yunhi KHema lagaoge

sirf karb-e-ana diya hai mujhe

muqaddar mein sahil kahan hai miyan

zindagi bhar jinhon ne dekhe KHwab

lala-zaron mein zard phul hun main
