kafan me lipte arman ja raha hai
jisko mili befawi pyar me
wafa ki talash me wo shamshan ja raha hai


Kabhi to ki hogi suraj ne chand
se mohabbat
Tabhi to chand mein daag hai,
Mumkin hai ki chand ne ki
hogi bewafai
Tabhi to suraj mein aag hai.



Wo roj jaate hai maikhaane mein
Jinko ranjo-gum ne jakdaa hai
Gark ho kar madiraa mein
Zaalim ne khanjar pakdaa hai
