sau bar chaman mahka sau bar bahaar aai

jab bhi do aansu nikal kar rah gae

zindagi kya hai ek safar ke siwa

rasm-e-mehr-o-wafa ki baat karen

zaban karti hai dil ki tarjumani dekhte jao

jab ashk teri yaad mein aankhon se Dhale hain

aise bhi the kuchh haalat

nazar mein Dhal ke ubharte hain dil ke afsane

kisi mein tab-e-alam nahin hai kisi mein soz-e-wafa nahin hai

wo husn ko jalwa-gar karenge

nigahen dar pe lagi hain udas baiThe hain

aankhen khuli thin sab ki koi dekhta na tha

sayon se lipaT rahe the sae

gham-nasibon ko kisi ne to pukara hoga

wo husn ko jalwa-gar karenge
