ab to kuchh aur bhee andhera hai
ye miree raat ka savera hai
rah-zanon se to bhaag nikala tha
ab mujhe rah-baron ne ghera hai
aage aage chalo tabar vaalo
abhee jangal bahut ghanera hai
qaafila kis kee pairavee mein chale
kaun sab se bada lutera hai
sar pe raahee kee sarabaraahee ne
kya saphaee ka haath phera hai
surama-aalood khushk aansuon ne
noor-e-jaan khaak par bikhera hai
raakh raakh ustakhvaan safed safed
yahee manzil yahee basera hai
ai miree jaan apane jee ke siva
kaun tera hai kaun mera hai
so raho ab ‘hapheez’ jee tum bhee
ye naee zindagee ka dera hai
