kaatii hai gam kii raat bade ehataraam se - Ali Ahmed Jalili

kaatii hai gam kii raat bade ehataraam se

aksar bujhaa liyaa hai charaagon ko shaam se

raushan hai apanii bazm aur is ehatamaam se

kuchh dil bhii jal rahe hain charaagon ke naam se

muddat huii hai khuun-e-tamannaa kiye magar

ab tak tapak rahaa hai lahuu dil ke jaam se

subah-e-bahaar ham ko bulaatii rahii magar

ham khelate rahe kisii zulfon kii shaam se

har saans par hai maut kaa peharaa lagaa huaa

aahistaa ai hayaat guzar is maqaam se

kaatii tamaam umr fareb-e-bahaar men

kaante sametate rahe phuulon ke naam se

ye aur baat hai ke "ali" ham na sun sake

aavaz us ne dii hai hamen har maqaam se
