Zindge youn the ke jenee ka bahana tu tha
Hum tu faqat zaib-e-hikayat the, afsana tu tha
Jese Jese chaha tere hijran main wo log
Atee jatee musam the zamana tu tha
Dost dost ke hatoon main kamanee theen farhan
Sabhi dekh ke such rahee the, nishana tu tha.
Chandni se chamakti is raat mein,
ek khushboo si hai har baat mein,
hai sitaare mere kadmo ke tale,
Ek ehsaas hai aaj unki har aahat mein,
paas aake bhi kyu hein duriya,
koi pyasa hein kyu barsat mein.
