ek ek qatare kaa mujhe denaa padaa hisaab

khuun-e-jigar vadiiat-e-mishagaan-e-yaar thaa

ab main huun aur maatam-e-yak shahar-e-aarazuu

todaa jo tuu ne aaiinaa timasaal daar thaa

galiyon men merii naash ko khenche phiro ki main

jaan daad-e-havaa-e-sar-e-rahaguzaar thaa

mauj-e-saraab-e-dasht-e-vafaa kaa na puchh haal

har zarraa misl-e-jauhar-e-teg aabadaar thaa

kam jaanate the ham bhii gam-e-ishq ko par ab

dekhaa to kam hue pa gam-e-rozagaar thaa
