Umr-e-gurezan Ke Nam

umar yun mujh se gurezan hai ki har gam pe main

is ke daman se lipaTta hun manata hun ise

wasta deta hun mahrumi o nakaami ka

dastan aabla-pai ki sunata hun ise

KHwab adhure hain jo dohraata hun un KHwabon ko

zaKHm pinhan hain jo wo zaKHm dikhata hun use

us se kahta hun tamanna ke lab-o-lahje mein

ai meri jaan meri laila-e-tabinda-jabin

sunta hun tu hai meri laila-e-tabinda-jabin

sunta hun tu hai mah o mahr se bhi baDh ke hasin

yun na ho mujh se gurezan ki abhi tak main ne

jaanna tujh ko kuja pas se dekha bhi nahin

subh uTh jata hun jab murgh azan dete hain

aur roTi ke taaqub mein nikal jata hun

sham ko Dhor palaTte hain chara-gahon se jab

shab-gizari ke liye main bhi palaT aata hun

yun na ho mujh se gurezan mera sarmaya abhi

KHwab hi KHwab hain KHwabon ke siwa kuchh bhi nahin

multawi karta raha kal pe teri did ko main
