Chiraagh-o-Aftaab gumm, bari haseen raat thi
Shabab ki naqaab gumm, bari haseen raat thi
Labon se lub jo mil gaye, labon se lub sil gaye
Sawaal gumm, jawaab gumm, bari haseen raat thi
Likha tha jis kitaab mein ke ishq to haram hai
Hui wohi kitaab gumm, bari haseen raat thi
Mujha pila raha tha wohke khudh hi shama bujh gayi
Sharaab gumm, gilaas gumm bari haseen raat thi
Mohabbat ke is zamane mein duhman hain bahut
Jo sehree ke phool janazon pe saja dete hain
