ye kis Khalish ne phir is dil me.n aashiyaanaa kiyaa
phir aaj kis ne suKhan ham se Gaayebaanaa kiyaa

Gam-e-jahaa.N ho, ruKh-e-yaar ho ke dast-e-uduu
salook jis se kiyaa hamane aashiqaanaa kiyaa

the Khaak-e-raah bhii ham log qahar-e-tuufaa.N bhii
sahaa to kyaa na sahaa aur kiyaa to kyaa na kiyaa

Khushaa ke aaj har ik mudda_ii ke lab par hai
vo raaz jis ne hame.n raa.Nd-e-zamaanaa kiyaa

vo hiilaagar jo vafaajuu bhii hai jafaaKhuu bhii
kiyaa bhii "Faiz" to kis but se dostaanaa kiyaa
