Ab andheron main jo hum khauf-zada bethe hain..

Ab andheron main jo hum khauf-zada bethe hain,
Kya kahen khud hi charaaghon ko bujha bethe hain,

Bas yehi soch ke taskeen si ho jaati hai,
Aur kuch log bhi duniya se khafaa bethe hain,

Dekh le jan-e-wafaa aaj teri mehfil main,
Ek mujrim ki tarah ehl-e-wafa bethe hain,

Ek hum hain ke parastish pe aqeeda hi nahin,
Aur kuch log yahan ban ke khuda bethe hain,

Shaad tu bazm ke adaab samajhta hi nahin,
Aur bhi log yahan tere siva bethe hain..
