Guzar ta nahi ye shaam-e-gham&nbsp;&nbsp;
Zindagi ke dukhon ka hai peham sitam&nbsp;&nbsp;

Qadam qadam par thakan ka pehra&nbsp;&nbsp;
Himaton ke chiragh bhi ** gaye madhham&nbsp;&nbsp;

Musaafir hoon raahon ka jin ko khabar&nbsp;&nbsp;
Manzilon ka saraab hai, dil ka maatam&nbsp;&nbsp;

Khawab jo bune the, reza reza huye&nbsp;&nbsp;
Haath khaali rahe, na raha koi dum&nbsp;&nbsp;

Sawaal ye hai, aye falak-e-jafa&nbsp;&nbsp;
Kitna aur sehna hai, bata ye sanam&nbsp;&nbsp;

Guzar jaye ye shaam-e-gham kisi tarah&nbsp;&nbsp;
Warna raah mein bikhar jayein hum
