andheri bastiyan raushan manare Dub jaenge

añdherī bastiyāñ raushan manāre Duub jā.eñge

zamīñ rotī rahī to shahr saare Duub jā.eñge

jhulas deñgī jo sahrā.ī havā.eñ reshmī saa.e

dhueñ ke zahr meñ rañgīñ nazāre Duub jā.eñge

abhī se kashtiyāñ sab sāhiloñ kī samt ruḳh moḌeñ

ki jab tūfān aayā phir ishāre Duub jā.eñge

baḌhegī un kī lau koī agar sīñche harārat se

barastī barf meñ saare sharāre Duub jā.eñge

yūñhī palte rahe gar hasht-pā is jhiil kī tah meñ

kisī din sat.h par hañste shikāre Duub jā.eñge

fareb-e-māh-o-anjum se nikal jaa.eñ to achchhā hai

zarā sūraj ne karvaT lī ye taare Duub jā.eñge

chaTānoñ par kareñ kanda nishānī apne hone kī

sunahre kāġhazoñ ke goshvāre Duub jā.eñge

andheri bastiyan raushan manare Dub jaenge

zamin roti rahi to shahr sare Dub jaenge

jhulas dengi jo sahrai hawaen reshmi sae

dhuen ke zahr mein rangin nazare Dub jaenge

abhi se kashtiyan sab sahilon ki samt ruKH moDen

ki jab tufan aaya phir ishaare Dub jaenge

baDhegi un ki lau koi agar sinche hararat se

barasti barf mein sare sharare Dub jaenge

yunhi palte rahe gar hasht-pa is jhil ki tah mein

kisi din sath par hanste shikare Dub jaenge

fareb-e-mah-o-anjum se nikal jaen to achchha hai

zara suraj ne karwaT li ye tare Dub jaenge

chaTanon par karen kanda nishani apne hone ki

sunahre kaghazon ke goshware Dub jaenge
