Kyun kisi Or kO Dukh Dard SunaOn Apne!
Apni AnkhOn sE bhi zakham, chupaOn Apne
mein Tu Qaiem hOn Tere gham ki badoLat warna!
Yun Bikhr JaOn, k Khud haath Na aaOn Apne
Shair LogOn k bOht yaad hain, O’rOn k Liye!
Tu miLe Tu mE TuJhy, shair sunaOn Apne
Sochta hOn k buJha dOn mE, yE kamry ka diya!
Apne saaye kO bhi kyun sath JagaOn Apne
Us ki TaLwar nE, wo chaaL chaLi Hy Faiz!
K PaaOn kat’ty Hain agar, Tu Hath bachaOn Apne…
