Shaam-e-firaaq ab na poch aaii aur aake tal gaii
dil thaa ke phir bahal gayaa, jaan thii ke phir sambhal gaii

---

Bazm-e-khayaal main tere husn kii shamaa jal gaii
dard kaa chaand bujh gayaa, hijr kii raat dhal gaii

---

jab tujhe yaad kar liyaa, subha mahak mahak uthii
jab tera gham jaga liya, raat machal machal gayi

---

dil se to har muaamalaa kar ke chale the saaf ham
kahani may unke saamane baat badal badal gaii

---

aakhir-e-shab ke hamsafar 'Faiz' na jaane kyaa huay
rah gaii kis jagah sabaa, subha kidhar nikal gaii
