(1911-1984)

  Yah dhup kinara shaam dhalen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
Yah dhup kinara shaam dhalen, 
Milte hain dono waqt jahan,
Jo raat na din, jo aaj na kal, 
pal bhar ko amar, pal bhar mein dhuaan 
Is dhup kinaare pal do pal. 
Hothon ki lapak Baahon ki khanak 
Yah mel hamaara jhooth na sach 
Kyon raar karen, kyon dosh dharen 
kis kaaran jhoothi baat karen 
Jab teri samandar aankhon mein 
shaam ka suraj dubega 
Sukh soyenge ghar dar waale 
Aur rahi apni rah lega. 
		 
 
  Donon jahaan teri mohabbat mein haar ke
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
Donon jahaan teri mohabbat mein haar ke
Woh jaa raha hai koi shab-e-gham guzaar ke

ViraaN hai maikada khum-o-saagar udaas hain
Tum kya gaye ke ruth gaye din bahaar ke

Ek fursat-e-gunah mili woh bhi chaar din
Dekhe hain hum ne hausle parwardigaar ke

Duniya ne teri yaad se begaana kar diya
Tujh se bhi dilfreb hain gham rozgaar ke

Bhule se muskra kya diye woh aaj Faiz
Mat puchh walwale dil-e-nakarda kaar ke
