Ye Rang-o-nur Bhala Kab Kisi Ke Hath Aae

ye rang-o-nur bhala kab kisi ke hath aae

kidhar chale hain andhere ye hath phailae

KHuda kare koi shamen liye chala aae

dhaDak rahe hain mere dil mein sham ke sae

kahan wo aur kahan meri pur-KHatar rahen

magar wo phir bhi mere sath dur tak aae

main apne ahd mein sham-e-mazar ho ke raha

kabhi na dekh sake mujh ko mere ham-sae

chale-chalo ki bata degi rah KHud raste

kahan hai waqt ki koi kisi ko samjhae

haram ki aabru hum ne bahut rakhi phir bhi

kai charagh sanam-KHane mein jala aae

main apne dil ko to taskin de bhi lun 'maikash'

wo muztarib hai bahut kaun us ko samjhae
