(Aay shaam-e-ghariba) x5

(Behti rehi furat) x4

    Khoon ho ker beh gaya Akber kaa dil

    Muskura kar ker Khatam Asger ho gaye

    (Behti rahi furat) x2
    Karbala ke dasht me jaisaa andhera cha gaya

    Aa gaye sham-e-gharibaa surkh hai khak-e-shifaa

    Jhal gaye khaim-e-sar-e-shamm-e-Alamin

    Kitne manzar khaakh ho ker reh gaye

    (Behti rahi furat) x2
    Dhal gaya dil shaam aayi shaam phir aisi ke baad

    do paher ke baad chayi aisi tanhayi ki baad

    Kis terhaa zehra kaa ghar lutaa gaya

    Kis terha be sar bahater ho gaye

    (Behti rahi furat) x2
    Aaj subhe tak ye ghar roshan bhi tha abaad bhi

    sab ke waris the salamaat bhayi bhi awlaad bhi

    ik hawaa asi chali perdes me

    be zabaan bache bhi be sar ho gaye

    (Behti rahi furat) x2
    Ye hai woh sham-e-gharibaa jo kayamaat bangayi

    dukhtar-e-zehra ke sar se jisne chadare chin li

    ya rasulallah kayamat ho gayi

    dakhile khayma sitamgar hogaye

    (Behti rahi furat) x2
    Aik ik katre ko tarse ban me ab faal-e-hussain

    mashk zakhmi khali quze laash pamaal-e-hussain

    reh gayaa maidaan me be kas kaa tan

    jashan me masroof lashkar hogaye

    (Behti rahi furat) x2
    Marte dam pani pisar mange padar majboor hai

    tu bataa sham-e-ghariba al qamaa kiya door hai

    waye nehre al qamaa behti rahi

    aur pyaase qatl akber hogaye

    (Behti rahi furat) x2
    Hai wohi manzar wohi khaimay wohi tishna labi

    aaye hai sham-e-gharibaa khu(n) rulaane aaj bhi

    gham hame "rehan -o-sarwar" kyu na ho

    mahve mataam jab payambar hogaye

    (Behti rahi furat) x2
    Khoon ho ker beh gaya Akber kaa dil

Muskura kar ker Khatam Asger ho gaye

(Behti rahi furat) x2
