AAJ PHIR YEH KHABAR GHAR AAYII,
SHAAKHE GUL LE RAHI HAI ANGRHAAYEE,
UN KE AANE PE ZAHAR UTREGA,

ZAKHM YAADO'N KE KUCHH HARE NA HUE,
AB KE KAISE CHALI HAI PURWAYEE,
FARQ TAHZEEB NAU MEI'N KUCHH NA RAHA,
KYA HAI RUSWAYEE KYA PAZIRAYEE,
SHAHRE ULFAT SE HOKE AAYA HAI,
PHOOL KI PAT-THARO'N SE BOO AATEE,
AIK JUGNOO KI RAUISHNI MEI'N LIKHA,
CHAAND SURAJ KI JALWA FARMAAYEE,
MERE TAHZEEB KE DARIICHE SE,
JHAANKTI SALF KI HAI PARCHHAYEE,
NAZAR USKI HAI HAR GHAZAL "NAYYER",
LO SHAMA GHUM KI JIS NE BHARHKAYEE.
