Ik ajab raushni kitaab me'n hai
Dekhta jaise koyee khawab me'n hai
Mai'n agar chandni ki qaid me'n hoo'n
Band to bhi to mahtab me'n hai
Kaun kahta hai zindagi meri
Ik bujhi shama saile aab me'n hai
Keya khabar thee mai'n dhoonta hoo'n jise
Wo chhupa hijla-e-gulaab me'n hai
Ahde peeri tamaam khawb-o-khayal
Juz kaho keya rakha shabab me'n hai
