kuchh na kuchh sochte raha kije

yun ganwata hai koi jaan-e-aziz

pas apne ek jaan hai sain

husn-e-bazm-e-misal mein kya hai

apni be-chehragi mein patthar tha

ab jo dekha to dastan se dur

raat humne jahan basar ki hai

samne ji sambhaal kar rakhna

humne to is ishq mein yaro khinche hain aazar bahut

sham se pahle ghar gae hote

koi tamir ki surat nikalo

mumkin hai wo din aae ki duniya mujhe samjhe

mir-ji se agar iradat hai

tere nazdik aa kar sochta hun

charagh-e-subh se sham-e-watan ki baat karo
