aah-e-be-asar nikli nala na-rasa nikla

ek nawa-e-rafta ki bazgasht thi qaisi

jitne the rang husn-e-bayan ke bigaD gae

ye ras rang ye mel milan ek hath mein chand ek mein suraj

nazar uThao to jhum jaen nazar jhukao to Dagmagaen

kai bar daur-e-kasad mein gire mehr-o-mah ke dam bhi

dilon ka KHun karo salim rakho gareban ko

chal qaisi mele mein chal kya rona tanhai ka

ajib shahr hai ghar bhi hain raston ki tarah

tujhe sine se laga lun tujhe dil mein rakh lun

kya hath uThaiye dua ko

ab to faqat badan ki murawwat hai darmiyan

jo zaKHm doston ne diye hain wo chhup to jaen
