koi to musafir thehrega shaam dhale

muskura ke ghum bhulana achha hai,
dard duniya se chhupana achha hai,

raah mein jab humsafar saath chorde,
khud bhi peechhe laut jaana achha hai,

koi to musafir thehrega shaam dhale,
ghar chiragon se sajana achha hai,

jo karein kirdaar ki baatein tujhse,
aayina un ko dikhana achha hai,

neev hillne lagi iss bayabaan ki,
ab tera ghar laut aana achha hai,

jo milo to dil khol ke milo sab se,
zakhm seene pe hi khaana achha hai,

kaash ke jal jaaye tasweer-e-bewafa,
ya shayed mera hi dil jalana achha hai.
