Ye shama to jali roshani ke lie
Is shama se kahin ag lag jaae to ye shama kya kare ?
Ye hawa to chali saans le har koi
Ghar kisi ka ujad jaae andhi men to ye hawa kya kare ?
Chalake purab se thhndi hawa a gi
Uthhake parabat se kaali ghata chha gi
Ye ghata to uthhi pyaas sab ki bujhe
Ashiyaan pe kisi ke giri bijaliyaan to ye ghata kya kare ?
Puchhata hun main sab se koi de jawaab
Naakhuda ki bhala kya khata hai janaab
Naakhuda leke saahil ke jaanib chala
Dub jaae safina jo majhadhaar men to naakhuda kya kare ?
Wo jo ulajhan si tere khayaalon men hai
Wo ishaara bhi mere sawaalon men hai
Ye nigaah to mili dekhane ke lie
Par kahin ye najar dhokha kha jaae to, to ye nigaah kya kare ?
