aap se mil kar meri tabiat phulon jaisi rahti hai

aap se mil kar merī tabī'at phūloñ jaisī rahtī hai

vaqt mile to kal phir aanā kal bhī merī chhuTTī hai

jaane kaunsā mausam hai ye chāroñ taraf hariyālī hai

tote se mainā kahtī hai imlī kitnī mīThī hai

jab purvā.ī so jaatī hai bojhal bojhal paañv liye

an-chhūe pattoñ ke pīchhe ik siiTī sī bajtī hai

kachchī chhatoñ ke nīche saa.e simTe simTe rahte haiñ

tanhā.ī ke lamhoñ meñ bārish bhī achchhī lagtī hai

dūsrā bistar ab aglī tanḳhvāh pe hī ban pā.egā

shaam Dhale tum ghar aa jaanā aaj to behad sardī hai

vo kyā jaane hotel-voTal picture-vikchar taash club

gaañv kī laḌkī shahr meñ aa kar sahmī sahmī rahtī hai

mausam kī pahlī bārish meñ sūraj palkeñ mūñdegā

saat samundar paar na jaanā aag kī nadiyā bahtī hai

aap se mil kar meri tabi'at phulon jaisi rahti hai

waqt mile to kal phir aana kal bhi meri chhuTTi hai

jaane kaunsa mausam hai ye chaaron taraf hariyali hai

tote se maina kahti hai imli kitni miThi hai

jab purwai so jati hai bojhal bojhal panw liye

an-chhue patton ke pichhe ek siTi si bajti hai

kachchi chhaton ke niche sae simTe simTe rahte hain

tanhai ke lamhon mein barish bhi achchhi lagti hai

dusra bistar ab agli tanKHwah pe hi ban paega

sham Dhale tum ghar aa jaana aaj to behad sardi hai

wo kya jaane hotel-woTal picture-wikchar tash club

ganw ki laDki shahr mein aa kar sahmi sahmi rahti hai

mausam ki pahli barish mein suraj palken mundega

sat samundar par na jaana aag ki nadiya bahti hai
