Puuchhate ho to suno kaise basar hotii hai
raat Khairaat kii sadqe kii sahar hotii hai

saans bharane ko to jiinaa nahiin kahate yaa rab
dil hii dukhataa hai na ab aasteen tar hotii hai

jaise jaagii huii aankhon men chubhen kaanch ke Khvaab
raat is tarah diivaanon kii basar hotii hai

Gham hii dushman hai meraa Gham hii ko dil Dhuundhataa hai
ek lamhe kii judaaii bhii agar hotii hai

ek markaz kii talaash ek bhaTakatii Khushbuu
kabhii manzil kabhii tamhiid-e-safar hotii hai
