Yeh Bastiyaan Hain K Maqtal

Ye bastiyaaN hain K maqtal, duaa kiye jayeN

Duaa ke din  hain musalsal, duaa kiye jayeN

Koi fughaaN, koi Naalaa, koi buka, koi bain

Khulega baab -e- muqaffal, duaa kiye jayeN

Ye aztraab, yeh lambaa safar, yeh tanhaayi

Yeh raat aur yeh jangal, duaa kiye jayeN

Bahaal hoke rahe gi fezaa-e-khitta-e-khair

Yeh habs hoga mu’attal, duaa kiye jayeN

Guzashtagan-e-muhabbat ke khaab ki saugand

Woh khaab hoga mukammal, duaa kiye jayeN

Hawaaye-sarkash-o-saffaak ke muqaabil bhi

Ye dil bujheiNge na mash’al, duaa kiye jayeN

Ghubaar uRaati, jhulasti hui zamiinoN par

UmaNd ke aayeiNge baadal, duaa kiye jayeN

Qubool hona muqaddar hai harf-e-khaalis ka

Har aek aan, har ek pal, duaa kiye jayeN
