Lakahan eidan naalon changa sanu ik deedar kise da
Ohnu saddi kadar ki howe jehra nahi bemaar kise da
Sadde dil da haal oh jaane jehnu howe pyar kise da
Sajna ro ro mangan duawan shaala vichre na yaar kise da
Yaadan vichre sajan diyan aayiyan ankhiyan ch mee wasda
Shaala muk jaan jag ton judayiyaan ankhiyan ch mee wasda
Kise da yaar na pardes jaawe
Vichchora na kise de pesh aawe
Shaala yaar naraaz na theeve j
Ag rusda bhavein rus jaawe
Meri yaar walon reh jaawe
Jag deyan ruseyan kujh nayi khusna
Maar janda e yaar da rusna
Shaala yaar naraaz na theeve mangan har dum eho duhayi
Na ankhiyan to ohle howe na dewe hijr sadayi
Unchiyan lambiyan sabz khajuran
Patar jehnan de saawe
Jis dam naal asaanj hau sadi
Saanu oh dam nazar na aawe
Galiyan sunj ujaar dissan
Sanu vehra kaam na aawe
Yaar fareed uthe ki wasna
Jithe yaar nazar na aawe
Vichar gaya sajna diyan tangan
Mere alre zakham jagawe
Pal palak pardesiyan karan
Meri ankhiyan ne saawan laaye
Allah jaane kayiyan pheran payiyan
Lang saal gaye nayi aaye
Yaar fareed aabaad theevan eh jhoka
Rabb pher vi raan wasave
Loki panj vele sanu har vele
Yaadan aayiyan
Mera lut leya chain vichore ne
Ankhan ro ro neer bahaundiyan ne
Loki yaad khuda nu karde ne
Sanu yaadan terian aundiyan ne
Dukh es gal da yaad rus challi e rus jaan waleya hayaati rus chali e
Saahwan aakhiri vi tere naawe laayiyan ankhiyan ch mee wasda
