merii terii nigaah men jo laakh intazaar hain- faiz ahmed faiz

merii terii nigaah men jo laakh intazaar hain

jo mere tere tan badan men laakh dil figaar hain

jo merii terii ungaliyon kii behisii se sab qalam nazaar hain

jo mere tere shahar kii har ik galii men

mere tere naqsh-e-paaa ke be-nishaan mazaar hain

jo merii terii raat ke sitaare zaKhm zaKhm hain

jo merii terii subah ke gulaab chaak chaak hain

ye zaKhm saare be-davaa ye chaak saare be-rafuu

kisii pe raakh chaand kii kisii pe os kaa lahuu

ye hain bhii yaa nahiin bataa

ye hai ki mahaz jaal hai

mere tumhaare ankabuut-e-vaham kaa bunaa huaa

jo hai to is kaa kyaa karen

nahiin hai to bhii kyaa karen

bataa, bataa, bataa, bataa
