Muskurati ankho ko
doston ki nam krna
Raam aise afsane
choor do raqam krna

...ab kahan wo pehli si
furstain muyas'sar hain
sara din safar krna
sari raat gham krna

sabr ki riwayat me
jabr ki adalat me
lab kabhi na waa krna
sir kabi na kham krna

shehr-e-shair me hum ne
gham bohat chuny lekin
ansoun me mushkil hy
kaainat zam krna

zindagi to sapna hy
kon yahan pr apna hy
kya kisy ko dukh dena
kya kisi ka gham krna
