[hashr=day of judgement; yaa.N=here]

ham to samajhe the ki dushman pe uThaayaa Kha.njar
tumane jaanaa ki hamii.n tum pe hai.n marane vaale

sabr kii mere, mujhe daad zaraa de denaa
O mere hashr ke din faisalaa karane vaale

kyaa mazaa detii hai bijalii kii chamak mujhako "Riaz"
mujhase lipaTate hai.n, mere naam se Darane vaale

vo kaun hai duniyaa me.n jise Gam nahii.n hotaa

itanaa Darate hai.n to phir ghar se nikalate kyuu.N hai.n 

mai.n na juganuu huu.N diyaa huu.N na ko_ii taaraa huu.N
raushanii vaale mere naam se jalate kyuu.N hai.n 

niind se meraa ta’alluq hii nahii.n baraso.n se
