Kaun kehta hay k maut aayi tu mar jaonga
Main tu darya houn samandar mein utar jaonga
Tere pehlo se jo thoonga tu mushkil ye hay
Sirf ik shakhs ko paonga jidhar jaonga
Ab tere shehar mein aaonga musaafir ki tarah
Saaya e abr ki maanind guzar jaonga
Tera paimaan e wafa rah ki deewar bana
Warna soocha tha jab chahonga mar jaonga
Chaara saazon se alag hay mera miyaar k main
Zakham khaonga tu kuch aur sanwar jaonga
Ab tu khursheed ko doobay hoye sadiyaan guzri
Ab usay dhoondnay mein taa sehar jaonga
Zindagi shamma ki maanind jalata hoon zahid
Bujh tu jaonga magar subha tu kar jaonga
