Chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jayen hum dono,
Na main tum se koi umeed rakhon dil-nawazi ki,
Na tum meri taraf dekho ghalat andaaz nazron se,
Na mere dil dharkan larkhraye meri baaton se,
Na zaahir ho tumhari mohabbat ka raaz nazron se,
Tumhein bhi koi uljhan rokti hai paish-qadmi se,
Mujhe bhi log kehtay hain ye jalway praye hain,
Mere humrah bhi ruswaieyan hain mere maazi ki,
Tumhare saath bhi guzri hoi raaton k saaye hain,
Taa'ruf roog hojaye tou uska bhoolna behta,
Taa'luq bojh ban jaye tou uska torna acha,
Wo afsana jisay takmeel tak lana ho na-mumkin,
Usay ik khoobsurat morr day k chorna acha,
Chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jayen hum dono.
