Raat kay andheray hain , khwaab bajti aankhon kay

Raat kay andheray hain , khwaab bajti aankhon kay

Her taraf se wehmay hain , soch-e-aztraab kay

Phir junoon-e-dasht main be'rad nigahon par

Surajon kay shaher se bagawaton ka silsala

Qaafla rawaan da'waan gard se atta hua

Phir isi qabeelay se dushmni kay marhalay

Tamaam din thaka hua

Dhool se ataa hua

Her taraf nigahon par tairagi kay gum'shuda

Manzaron pe chaa rahay thay

Dushmano kay dab'dby

Hum udaas tehray thay , aarzo kay sehraa main

Zeest aftaab tha , aur hasraton kay saaye thay

Dushmano ka jashan tha zindagi kay maqtal main

Arzoo kay lamhon main hum bhi sur'khru huye

Samnay tha karbala aur hum bhi ru'ba'ru thay
