Aj phir sataaye gi raat pooray chaand ki,
Dar ba dar phiraaye gi raat pooray chaand ki,

Baam-o-dar ki qaid main rooh pharpharaaye gi,
Wehshatain barrhaaye gi raat pooray chaand ki,
...
Jis taraf mein jaaun ga meray saaye ki tarah,
Meray saath jaaye gi raat pooray chaand ki,

Ye samandari hawaa, us pe qurb ka nasha,
Kitnay zulm dhaaye gi raat pooray chaand ki,

Aisa lag raha hai ab, too agar bicchar gayaa,
Laut ker na aaye gi raat pooray chaand ki,

Qumqamo'n k shehr main apni apni seaj par,
Subah tak jagaaye gi raat pooray chaand ki,

Aaj hi se chorr de mera haath warna phir,
Umr bhar rulaaye gi raat pooray chaand ki...
