us ko aanaa hai aur be-naqaab aayegaa
jab tamannaa pe mere shabaab aayegaa

zulmato.n ke pujaarii kahaa.N jaaye.nge
jab chamakataa huaa aafataab aayegaa

aaj kal mujhase vo baat karataa nahii.n
aur ab kyaa zamaanaa Kharaab aayegaa

ra.nd laayegaa jab Khuun mazaluum kaa
vo zamaanaa bhii jaldii janaab aayegaa

maalik-e-maikadaa ri.nd ho jaaye.nge
maikade me.n nayaa i.nqalaab aayegaa

saath us ke sivaa ko_ii degaa nahii.n
jab "Saba" kaa zamaanaa Kharaab aayegaa

kuchh Khayaal aate hai.n aur aa ke chale jaate hai.n
aa_iinaa-saa mujhe dikhalaa ke chale jaate hai.n

saath mar ke bhii rahaa mere Gam-e-tanhaa_ii
varnaa ahabaah to dafanaa ke chale jaate hai.n

merii ta.nhaa_ii ke saathii mere saaGar-miinaa
ab to ye bhii mujhako bahakaa ke chale jaate hai.n

kitanii badanaam hai baazaar-e-muhabbat me.n vafaa
log is chiiz ke paas aake chale jaate hai.n

jin ko ham apanaa samajhate the vahii ham ko "Saba"
dekh lete hai.n to kataraa ke chale jaate hai.n

jab namaaz-e-muhabbat adaa kiijiye
Gair ko bhii shariik-e-duaa kiijiye

aa.Nkh vaale nigaahe.n churaate hai.n
aa_iinaa kyuu.N na ho saamanaa kiijiye

aa.Nkh me.n ashk-e-Gam aa bhii jaaye.n to kyaa
cha.nd qatre to hai.n, pii liyaa kiijiye

aap kaa ghar sadaa jagamagaataa rahe
raah me.n bhii diyaa rakh diyaa kiijiye

zer-e-paa hai.n sama.ndar kii gaharaa_iiyaa.N
ab to saahil pe bhii tajurbaa kiijiye
