Bhula do ranj ke baton mein kya hai
idhar dekho meri aankhon mein kya hai
bahut tarik din hai phir bhi dekho
ujala chandani raton mein kya hai
nahi patin jise bedar nazaren
khudaya ye mere khvabon mein kya hai
ye kya dhundhe chale jati hai duniya
tamasha-sa gali-kuchon mein kya hai
hai vahashat-si ye har chehare pe kaisi
na jane saham-sa nazaron mein kya hai
ye ik haijan-sa dariya mein kyon hai
ye kuch saman-sa maujon mein kya hai
zara-sa bal hai ik zulfon ka us ke
vagarna zor zanjiron mein kya hai
hain khamyaze surur-e-arazu ke
nishat-o-gam kaho namon mein kya hai
tumhari der-amezi bhi dekhi
takalluf lakhanau valon mein kya hai
