Aaj fir raat na guzre gi suhani apni

Wahi qisse wahi baat purani apni
Kaun sunta hai bhala ram kahani apni

Har sitamger ko ye hamdard samajh leti hai
Kitni khush fahm hai kambakht jawani apni.

Roz milte hain dareeche pe naye phool mujhe
Chor jaata hai koi roz nishaani
apni.

Tujhse bichre hain to paya hai beyanba ka sakoot
Warna dariyaaon se milti thi rawani apni.

Dushmano se hi gham ka madawa maange
Dostoon ne to koi baat na maani apni.

Aaj fir chaand ufuq par nahi ubhra hai 'Quamar'
Aaj fir raat na guzregi suhaani apni
