Alvida Kehkar ussey takta raha main deer taak
Aatish-e-khamosh main jalta raha main deer taak
shehar ki veeran galiyoon main akela raat bhar
aik musafir ki tarhan phirta raha main deer taak
Asmaan per aik adhora chaand aur bikharay najoom
intezaar-e-subah main ginta raha deer taak
Sochta hoon kis liye bhujta chala jata hai dil
baad iskay main ji ko behalata raha main deer taak
Kis qadar maazi ki yaadien talkh aur beydard hain
neend khokay ankh sey rota raha main deer taak
Haal iss nay bhi na pocha go mera humraaz tha
aaheen iskay robarooh bharta raha main deer taak!
