ek nagma ek taara ek guncha ek jaam
ai gam-e-dauraan gam-e-dauraan tujhe mera salaam

zulf aawaara garebaan chaak ghabaraayi  nazar
in dinon ye hai jahaan mein zindagaani ka nizaam

chand taare tuut kar daaman mein mere aa gire
mainne puuchha tha sitaaron se tere gam ka maqaam

pad gayin pairaahan-e-subah-e-chaman par salawatein
yaad aa kar rah gayi hai bekudi ki ek shaam

teri ismat ho ke ho mere hunar ki chaandani
waqt ke baazaar mein har chiz ke lagate hain daam
