Ham se bhaagaa na karo duur Ghazaalo.n kii tarah,
hane chaahaa hai tumhe.n chaahne vaalo.n kii tarah,

Khud-ba-Khud nii.nd-sii aa.Nkho.n me.n ghulii jaatii hai,
mahkii mahkii hai shab-e-Gham tere baalo.n kii tarah,

aur kyaa is se zyaadaa ko_ii narmii bartuu.N,
dil ke zaKhmo.n ko chhuaa hai tere gaalo.n kii tarah,

aur to mujh ko milaa kyaa merii mehnat kaa silaa,
cha.nd sikke hai.n mere haath me.n chhaalo.n kii tarah,

zindagii jis ko teraa pyaar milaa vo jaane,
ham to naakaam rahe chaahne vaalo.n kii tarah.
