Muqadder hai be der-o-deewar rahna
Kahein  tyy paraha hai shaher ka mismar rahna

Namood  khuab ke aur inhedam khuab ke beech
Qayamat merhalah hai dil ka nahamwar rahna

Dilon  ke dermiayn doori ke din hain aur hum ko
Isi mausam mein tanha ber sare paikar rahana

Andheri  rat aur shorisgan-e-koy dashnam
Aur aise mein kisi ek aankh kabaidar rahna

Tmasha kerne walw aa rahein hain joq  dar joq
Garohe  pabajola raqs ko tyyar rahna

Hwai koyy qatil be adab hone lagi hai
Chiragh-e-jadai sidq-o-safa hushyar rahana

Yeh dushwari to aasani kakhamiyazah hai werna
Bahut hi sahel tha hum ko bahut dushwar rahna

Idher  kuch  din se as basti ko ras aane laga hai
Hum Ashaftah dilon ko  darpai  aazar rahna
