Khiraaj hai yeh mohabbaton ka , adawaton ka

Khiraaj hai yeh mohabbaton ka , adawaton ka

Azaab lamhon ki weh'shaton ka 

Lahu main nikri hikayaton ka , badan se lipti shikayaton ka 

Ragon main utri , utar kay bikhri , bikhar kay phaili baghawaton ka 

Khiraaj hai yeh mohabbaton ka , adawaton ka

Unhein bhi dekho jo sar pe matti ko orhti hain 

Jo apni hurmat ki kirchiyon ko jigar kay poron se chun rahi hain 

Jo khawab palkon se bun rahi hain 

Phir in ko khud hi udherti hain , bachi kuchi si jo apni saansein samait'ti hain 

Samait kar khud bikharti hain 

Koi to in ka jahan main ho ga , magar kahan hai ?

Panah main jo le lay in ko apni , woh ghar kahan hai ?

Khiraaj hai yeh mohabbaton ka , adawaton ka

Falak pe ugta hua yeh suraj gawahi de ga 

Hawaein roti hain sun kar maaon kay bain her pal

Jo kookti hain , jo hookti hain 

Sisak sisak kar jo jee rahi hain 

Jo apnay baiton ki raakh ki laashein 

Zameen par dewaar chun rahi hain 

Khiraaj hai yeh mohabbaton ka , adawaton ka

MAgar woh pal door ab nahin hai , hamein yaqeen hai 

JAhan main chaaron hi aur kirno ka raaj ho ga 

Mittay huyon kay , luttay huyon kay saron pe khushiyon ka taaj ho ga 

Niqaab utray ga dekh lena 

Jo bhair lagtay thay , bhairiye hain 

Aur un kay abru kay ik isharay pe mout raqsan thi

Chaaron janib 

Aur aasteeno main in kay khanjir chuppay huye thay 

Samjh lo youm-e-hisaab un ka qareeb hai ab 

Niqaab utray ga dekh lena
