Chaand sitaaron se kyaa puchhon kab din mere phirate hain 
vo to bechaare khud hain bhikaarii der der phirate hain 

jin galiyon mein ham ne sukh kii sej pe raatein kaatii thein 
un galiyon mein akalay hokar saanjh savere phirate hain 

jin ke shaam-badan saaye mein mera man sustaayaa thaa 
ab tak aankhon ke aage vo baal ghaneray phirate hain 

is nagarii mein baag aur ban kii yaaro lelaa nyaarii hai 
panchii apnay sar pe uthaakar apane basere phirate hain 

log to daman sei letay hain jaise ho jii lete hain 
ham dewanay hain jo baal bikheray phiratay hain
