Dil Ka Sara Ghor Andhera Dur Hua

dil ka sara ghor andhera dur hua

kis ka hai ye nur jo main pur-nur hua

zaKHm risa phir zaKHm-e-dil nasur hua

rafta rafta jaise bhagalpur hua

yun to hum ne qisse likkhe ranga-rang

lekin gham ka qissa hi mashhur hua

pani pani chiKH raha tha pyasa dil

shahr-e-sitam ka kaisa ye dastur hua

kaisa mulk-shor bapa hai KHeme mein

aankhen suni dil ka shisha chur hua

ab ke mausam sadiyon ka tahzibi rang

KHatm hua barbaad hua kafur hua

shahr mein tere kis se gila phir karte hum

'aKHtar' jab apna hi saya dur hua
