kaheen taare kaheen shabanam kaheen juganu nikale 
saare manzar teri aawaaz ke jaadu nikale 

zindagi ham jiye auron ki kushi ki kaatir 
bheed mein hans diye tanhaai mein aansu nikale 

tere honthon pe chamak utthe mera naam kabhi 
aur meri gazalon ke paradon se kabhi tu nikale 

jab bhi yaad a gaya wo saanwala chehara ' raashid'  
aankhon mein phool khile saanson se kushbu nikale
