Khuun se jab jalaa diyaa ek diyaa bujhaa huaa
phir mujhe de diyaa gayaa ek diyaa bujhaa huaa

ek hii daastaan-e-shab ek hii silsilaa to hai
ek diyaa jalaa huaa ek diyaa bujhaa huaa

mahafil-e-rang-o-nuur kii phir mujhe yaad aa gaii
phir mujhe yaad aa gayaa ek diyaa bujhaa huaa

mujh ko nishaat se fuzuun rasm-e-vafaa aziiz hai
meraa rafiiq-e-shab rahaa ek diyaa bujhaa huaa

dard kii kaainaat men mujh se bhii raushanii rahii
vaise merii bisaat kyaa ek diyaa bujhaa huaa

sab merii raushanii-e-jaan harf-e-sukhan men Dhal gaii
aur main jaise rah gayaa ek diyaa bujhaa huaa
