Ke kabi mulaqat na hogi

dekho ge humain roz magar bat na hogi
Ek shehr man reh keh be mulaqat na hogi

kehna hai jo keh dalo abi waqt hai baqi
kal hum honge … magar art-e-halat na hogi

jo pochna hai tum ko abi poch lo warna
phir Rasm-e-sawalat na hogi

din itne huwe taweel hijir ke logo
tarpo ge sar-e-sham magar raat na hogi

ye soch kar be dil tarap uthta hai yara
bichren ge is tarah, ke kabi mulaqat na hogi
