Kiya Dukh Thay, Kon Jaan Sakega Nighar-e-Shab

Kiya Kiya Na Khawab Hijar K Mosam Mein Kho Gaye
Hum Jaagte Rahe Thay Magar Bakht So Gaye,

Us Ne Pyaam Bheje To Raste Mein Reh Gaye
Hum Ne Jo Khat Likhe Woh Hawaa Burd Ho Gaye,

Main Shaher-e-Gul Mein Zakham Ka Chehra Kise Dekhaon?
Shbnam Badast Log To Kaante Chabho Gaye,

Anchal mein Phool Le K Kahaan ja Rahi Hoon Main
Jo Aane Waale Log Thay, Woh Log To Gaye,

Kiya Jaane Ufaq Kau Udhar Kiya Tilsam Hai
Laote Nahi Zameen Par Ek Baar Jo Gaye,

Woh Bachpane Ki Neend To Ab Khawab Ho Gai
Kiya Umar Thi K Raat Howi Aur So Gaye,

Kiya Dukh Thay, Kon Jaan Sakega Nighar-e-Shab
Jo Mere Aur Tere Dopattay Bhego Gaye. — .
