Ab tum kyon aaye ho sanam

                        Main  ek bujhti sikha hoon

Parwana ko taras gayee jo

                       Aisi eik shama hoon

Armaanon ke phool khile na

                     Yauwan ke gulshan mein

Khushiyan aa kar kabhi na machleen

                       Mann   ke  aangon  mein

Chand sa mukhda  kabhi thaa mera

                       Ab na koyi upama hoon

Ummeedon ne saath diya nahin

                      Aur na  sapne  aaye

Mann ki sukhi bagiya mein

                       Kabhi suman nahin khil paaye

Doobti sandhya ki ab main

                      Kewal ek laalima hoon

Taruna yee ki laali rahi na

                      Dhumil sa mann-darpan

Chanchalta aakhiyon mein nahin ab

                        Aur na chanchal chitawan

Khandhar Mahalon ki hoon aaj main

                         Ab na koyee shushma hoon.
