raste ki qaid mein ghum karwan honay ko hai
aur musafir bhuli bisri dastaan honay ko hai
zulmat-e-shab kis liye chehron pe phir mal di hai
loog kitnay khush thay qismat meharban honay ko hai
dhoop aankhon mein utar kar roh tak jhulsa gai
hum ne to socha tha aanchal sayeban honay ko hai
jab hawaon ki suno sargoshiyan to jaan lo
ab ke kashti ka mukhalif badban honay ko hai
saz-e-dil ke tar ab to tootnay ko hein batool
dard dharti se nikal kar aasman honay ko hai
aur musafir bhuli bisri dastaan honay ko hai
zulmat-e-shab kis liye chehron pe phir mal di hai
loog kitnay khush thay qismat meharban honay ko hai
