Dil ko gham-e-hayaat gavaara hai in dinon..

Dil ko gham-e-hayaat gavaara hai in dinon,
Pehle jo dard tha wohi chaara hai in dinon,

Har sail-e-ashk saahil-e-taskeen hai aaj kal,
Daryaa ki mauj mauj kinaara hai in dinon,

Yeh dil zara sa dil teri yaadon mein kho geya,
Zaray ko aandhiyon ka sahaara hai in dinon,

Shaamon mei ab nahin hai woh pehli si roshni,
Kyaa waqeyi woh anjuman-e-aaraa hai in dinon,

Tum aa sako to shab ko barrhaaa do kuch aur bhi,
Apne kahe mei subh ka taara hai in dinon..
