Chand Apni Wusaton Mein Gum-shuda Rah Jaega

chand apni wusaton mein gum-shuda rah jaega

hum na honge to kahan koi diya rah jaega

rafta rafta zehn ke sab qumqume bujh jaenge

aur ek andhe nagar ka rasta rah jaega

titliyon ke sath hi pagal hawa kho jaegi

pattiyon ki oT mein koi chhupa rah jaega

zard patton ki tarah ek din bikhar jaega tu

ja chuke mausam ko tanha sochta rah jaega

shahr-e-viran mein hazaron KHwab le kar ek diya

zad pe tufanon ki hoga aur jala rah jaega

Dubte taron ki surat kuchh lakiren chhoD kar

mere hone aur na hone ka sira rah jaega

aandhiyan kar dengi gul 'ishrat' fasilon ke charagh

ek diya lekin tamanna ka jala rah jaega
