kaaTii hai Gam kii raat ba.De ehataraam se


kaaTii hai Gam kii raat ba.De ehataraam se 
aksar bujhaa liyaa hai charaaGo.n ko shaam se 

raushan hai apanii bazm aur is ehatamaam se 
kuchh dil bhii jal rahe hai.n charaaGo.n ke naam se 

muddat hu_ii hai Khuun-e-tamannaa kiye magar 
ab tak Tapak rahaa hai lahuu dil ke jaam se 

subah-e-bahaar ham ko bulaatii rahii magar 
ham khelate rahe kisii zulfo.n kii shaam se 

har saa.Ns par hai maut kaa peharaa lagaa huaa 
aahistaa ai hayaat guzar is maqaam se 

kaaTii tamaam umr fareb-e-bahaar me.n 
kaa.NTe sameTate rahe phuulo.n ke naam se 

ye aur baat hai ke "Ali" ham na sun sake 
aavaz us ne dii hai hame.n har maqaam se
