Woh num thi badal gai, mein sham tha dhal gaya

Woh nazar thi jhuk gai, mein tehreer tha mit gaya

Woh shama thi pighal gai, mein parwana tha jal gaya

Woh ashq thi beh gai, mein dard tha seh gaya

Woh chand thi chup gai, mein baadal tha baras gaya

Woh toofan thi guzar gai, mein gulshan tha bikhar gaya

Woh rooh thi nikal gai, mein jism tha khak ban gaya

Woh khushbu thi nikal gai, mein phool tha murjha gaya

Woh sua kuch thi chali gai, mein khak tha bikhar gaya
