Wo sab jin khaamion ke charche hain 
Wo humare nahi kahin aur ke hain
Jo agar nazron ko na padh sake zamana
To kya un nazron ke hum hi saaye hain 

Wo humara sab se yun nazrein churana
Aur sabki nazron ko humse chhupana
Kya koi raaz aisa gahra banega
Ki apno se khud ko begana banana

Koi  aake mere khwabon mein jhanke
Nighah e shauq meri nazmon pe lake
Ke kyun tahreeri surkhi  chhati rahi hai
Kyun rona chahta hai sabko bula ke

Jo zidd o laher aam ho chali hai
Jo tasveer e ulfat nakaam ho chali hai
Koi  to uska nigahbaan ho le
Jis subah ki berang shaam ho chali hai

Wo gaye zamane ki kheenchega sheera
Wo bedaari hai unqa jo paein sameera
Nahi bazm aisi ki iffat milegi
Kya mila hai kabhi zakheeron mein heera

Sab apne zom mein jiye ja rahe hain
Sab apni bedaari siye ja rahe hain
Wo apnon mein talkhi gholne ki
Jo wo adl khud pe kiye ja rahe hain

Na jane nazron ka kya pher le ke
Aur saare afsaanon ka zer le ke
Timtimata hai saquib apni shab ganwaye
Aazmata hai lafz apne hech le ke
