Lau De UTha Charagh-e-tamanna Bujha Hua

lau de uTha charagh-e-tamanna bujha hua

guzra ye aaj kaun idhar dekhta hua

ye hadsat bhi to guzarne zarur the

ai ishq kyun udas hai jo kuchh hua hua

wo rang kya hue wo bahaaren kidhar gain

ai ham-safir sara chaman hai luTa hua

yun aaj be-qarar hai duniya-e-arzu

jis tarah tilmilae koi dil dukha hua

kyun aaj bazm-e-zist mein be-kaifiyan si hain

ai husn teri mast-nigahi ko kya hua

girdab-e-gham hai aur meri kashti-e-umid

phir bahr-e-zindagi mein hai tufan uTha hua

apna pata na jada-e-manzil ki kuchh KHabar

KHud miT gaya hun 'naqsh' unhen DhunDhta hua
