lo aa gayee unakee yaad, wo naheen aaye

dil unako dhoondhataa hai, gam kaa singaar kar ke
aankhe bhee ruk gayee hai, ab intajaar kar ke
yek aas rah gayee hai, wo bhee naa toot jaaye

rotee hain aaj hum par, tanahaeeyaan humaaree
wo bhee naa paaye shaayad, parachhaeeyaan humaaree
badhate hee jaa rahe hai, maayooseeyon ke saaye

lau tharatharaa rahee hai, ab shama-ye-jindagee kee
ujadee huyee mohabbat  mehumaan hain do ghadee ke
mar kar hee ab milenge, jee kar to mil naa paaye
