aankh mein ashk liye KHak liye daman mein

shajar-e-ummid bhi jal gaya wo wafa ki shaKH bhi jal gai

sham-e-alam bhi guzri pahlu badal badal kar

hamara nam pukare hamare ghar aae

dil ne ek aah bhari aankh mein aansu aae

na puchh ai mere gham-KHwar kya tamanna thi

aansu bhi wahi karb ke sae bhi wahi hain

na sath dega koi rah aashna mera

wo charagh-e-zist ban kar rah mein jalta raha

ai shahr-e-sitam-pesha bata kis ko sada dun

shayad abhi kami si masihaiyon mein hai

gham gardish-e-dauran ke bhulae nahin jate

yaad karne ka tumhein koi irada bhi na tha
