zulmat-kade me mere shab-e-gam kaa josh hai
ik shamaa hai dalil-e-sahar so khamosh hai

ai taazaa vaaredaan-e-bisaat-e-hawaa-e-dil
zinhaar gar tumhe havas-e-naav-nosh hai

dekho mujhe jo didaa-e-ibarat-nigaah ho
meri suno jo gosh-e-nasihat-ni_osh hai

daag-e-firaaq-e-sohabat-e-shab ki jali hu_i
ik shammaa rah ga_i hai so wo bhi khamosh hai

aate hai gaib se ye mazaami khayaal me
'gaalib' sarir-e-khaamaa naawaa-e-sarosh hai
