Aik hii muzhdah subh laatii hai,
sehn meN dhuup phail jaatii hai,
(muzhdah : glad tidings; sehn : courtyard)
kyaa sitam hai ke ab terii suurat,
Ghaur karne pe yaad aatii hai,
sochtaa huuN ke us kii yaad aaKhir,
ab kise raat bhar jagaatii hai,
us vafaa-aashnaa kii furqat meN,
Khvaahish-e-Ghair kyuuN sataatii hai,
(vafaa-aashnaa : one who knows fidelity;
 Khvaahish-e-Ghair : desire for somebody else)
kaun is ghar kii dekh-bhaal kare,
roz ek chiiz TuuT jaatii hai.
