**Mujhey arzoo e seher rahi yunhi raat bhar bari dair tak
Na bikhar sake na simat sake yunhi raat bhar bari dair tak
Hai bohat azaab aur akaily hum, shab e gham bhi meri taweel tar
Rahi zindagi bhi saraab aur rahi aankh tar bari dair tak
Yahan har taraf hai ajeeb samaan, sabhi khud pasand, sabhi khud numa
Dil e be-qaraaar ko na mila koi chara gar bari dair tak
Mujhay zindagi hai aziz tar isi wastey mery hamsafar
Mujhay qatra qatra pila zehr, jo karey asar bari dair tak
Na sakoon e jaan na shreek e gham mila is jahan mein chaar su
Teri yaad thi meray saath jo rahi dar ba dar bari dair tak
Yahan shehar e dil bhi udaas hai aur ujaar ujaar si rah guzar
Rahey teray baad dhwaan dhwaan meray baam o dar bari dair tak**
