aashiq jo hu_e the ham unapar
din-raat lagaate the chakkar
sab kuchh to bataayaa ham ne magar
piT jaane kaa qissaa chho.D gaye

daulat kaa hame.n aramaan rahaa

do aane kaa bhii jo bik na sakaa
piital kaa vo bundaa chho.D gae

laila kaa vo kuttaa chho.D gaye

jiine se hai.n ham apane Kafaa
aur marane se hai Dar lagataa

karatii ho hame.n tum kyo.n rusavaa
sun logii kisii din muralii-dhar
is ishq me.n duniyaa chho.D gaye
