Konpalein Phir Phuut Aayin Shaak Par Kahana Use
Wo Na Samajha Hai Na Samajhega Magar Kahana Use
Waqt Ka Tuufaan Har Ik Shay Baha Kar Le Gaya
Itani Tanha Ho Gayi Hai Rahaguzar Kahana Use
Ja Raha Hai Chhod Kar Tanha Mujhe Jisake Liye
Chain Na De Paayega Wo Sim O Zar Kahana Use
Ris Raha Ho Kuun Dil Se Lab Magar Hansate Rahe
Kar Gaya Barabaad Mujhako Ye Hunar Kahana Use
Jisane Zakmon Se Mera ' Shahazaad' Sina Bhar Diya
Muskara Kar Aaj Pyaare Chaaraagar Kahana Use
