azab-e-barq-o-baran tha andheri raat thi

kuchh aur tarah ki mushkil mein Dalne ke liye

abhi hai husn mein husn-e-nazar ki kar-farmai

duniya se alaihadgi ka rasta

dil-e-muztar wafa ke bab mein ye jald-bazi kya

har ek gam ulajhta hun apne aap se main

log kis kis tarah se zinda hain

firaq mausam ki chilmanon se visal lamhe chamak uThenge

so apne hath se din bhi gaya hai duniya bhi

apne hi dam se charaghan hai wagarna aaftab

kab bhaTak jae aaftab husain

khila rahega kisi yaad ke jazire par

gae manzaron se ye kya uDa hai nigah mein

dilon ke bab mein kya daKHl aaftab-husain

chalo kahin pe talluq ki koi shakl to ho
