Mein Haqeeqat Houn Samajhtey Hein Woh Afsaana Mujhey
Khud Jalaatey Hein Bana Kar Apna Parwaana Mujhey

Gardash-e-Dauraan Se Kehdo Housh Ke Baatein Karey!
Gham Ke Toofaanoun Se Bhi Aata Hey Takraana Mujhey

Un Se Un Ki Bazm Mein Itna Hi Keh Ke Uthh Gaya
Raunaqein Tum Ko Mubarak Aur Veeraana Mujhey

Jaaney Kya Aadmi Tha, Na-Aashna Lagta Tha Woh
Kar Gaya Sarey Shanasaaoun Se Be-Gaana Mujhey

Aisey ChhupChhup Kar Kahan Tak Zahmat-e-Jalwa- Gari
Hashar Jo Bhi Ho, Nazar Aa Be-Hijabaana Mujhey

Meri Tark-e-May Kashi Per, Meri Har Tauba Ke Baad,
Ehtiraaman Leney Aaya Meer-e-May Khaana Mujhey

Har Naye Saaqi Ne Uff! Hasb-e-Riwayat He Diya
Meray He Khoon-e-Jigar Se Bhar Ke Pemaana Mujhey

Dekh Kar Iss Dil Ki Thandi Aag Mein Jaltey Howye
Hogay Rukhsat Dua'ayen De Ke Parwana Mujhey

usey yaad ker k na dil dukha, jo guzar gia wo guzar gia,
kahan lout ker koi ayai ga, jo guzar gia wo guzar gia,

Nayai subah hay, nayai shaab hay, naya shahar hay, naya naam hai,
Woh chala gaya usay bhool jaa, jo guzar gia woh guzar gia,

Koi ayai ga koi jayai ga, koi jayai ga koi ayai ga,
Suno raston ki sada, jo guzar gaya wo guzar gia,

Teray paas tera habai hay, jo nahin mila woh naseeb hay,
Koi phool kehta hai muskura, jo guzar gaia woh guzar gia,

Mujhey pat jharon ki kahanian na suna suna kay udaas ker,
Nayai mausamon ka pata bata, jo guzar gia wo guzar gia,

Yahan aetbar-o-yaqeen hai, yeh haqiqaton ki zameen hay,
Zara dair ka koi khuwab tha, jo guzar gia wo guzar gia
