Kuchh yadgar-E-shahr-E-sitamgar hi le chalen 
Aaye haiN is gali meN to pat_thar hi le chalen
YuN kis tarah katega kaRi dhup ka safar 
Sar par khayal-e-yar ki chaadar hi le chalen
Ranj-E-safar ki koi nishaani to paas ho 
Thori si khak-E-kucha-E-dilbar hi le chalen
Ye kah k chheRti hai hamaiN dilgiraftagi 
Ghabraa gaye haiN ap to bahar hi le chalen
Is shahr-E-be-chiraaGh meN jaayegi tu kahaN 
Aa ai shab-E-firaaq tujhe ghar hi le chalen
