Theher Jaye, Magar Raat Katay |
Theher Jaye, Magar Raat Katay
Koi Soorat Ho Ke Barsaat Katay
Khushbuuain Mujhko Qalam Karti Gayin
Shaakh Dar Shaakh Mere Haath Katay
Mouj-e-Gul Hai Ke Talwaar Koi
Darmiaan Se Hee Manajaat Katay
Harf Kiun Apne Ganwayein Jaa Kar
Baat Se Phele Jahan Baat Katay
Chaand ! Aa Mil Ke Manayein Ye Shab
Aaj Ki Raat Tere Saath Katay
Pooray Insaanon Mein Ghus Aayein Hain
Sar Katay, Jism Katay, Zaat Katay
Koi Soorat Ho Ke Barsaat Katay
Khushbuuain Mujhko Qalam Karti Gayin
Shaakh Dar Shaakh Mere Haath Katay
Mouj-e-Gul Hai Ke Talwaar Koi
Darmiaan Se Hee Manajaat Katay
Harf Kiun Apne Ganwayein Jaa Kar
Baat Se Phele Jahan Baat Katay
Chaand ! Aa Mil Ke Manayein Ye Shab
Aaj Ki Raat Tere Saath Katay
Pooray Insaanon Mein Ghus Aayein Hain
Sar Katay, Jism Katay, Zaat Katay
