lab-e Khamosh se afsha hoga

lab-e Khamosh se afsha hoga
raz har rang main ruswa hoga

dil ke sahra main chali sard hawa
abr gulzar pe barsa hoga

tum nahi the to sar-e-bam-e-Khayal
yad ka koi sitara hoga

kis tawaqqo pe kisi ko dekhain
koi tum se bhi haseen kya hoga

zinat-e-halqa-e-agosh bano
dur baithoge to charcha hoga

zulmat-e-shab main bhi sharmate ho
dard chamkega to phir kya hoga

jis bhi fankar ka shahkar ho tum
us ne sadiyon tumhain socha hoga

kis qadar karb se chatkhe hai kali
shakh se gul koi tuta hoga

umr bhar roye faqat is dhun main
rat biti to ujala hoga

sari duniya hamain pahachanati hai
koi ham-sa bhi na tanha hoga
