andhi rahon ki uljhan mein bechaari ghabrai raat
andhī rāhoñ kī uljhan meñ bechārī ghabrā.ī raat
pahle lahū meñ phir aañsū meñ phir kirnoñ meñ nahā.ī raat
ik parde ko uTh jaanā thā ik chehre ko aanā thā
kitnī hasīñ thī kitnī dilkash sharmā.ī sharmā.ī raat
har shāḳh-e-gul meñ thī ye narmī ġhunche tak gir jaate the
aaj har ik Tahnī patthar hai kaisī āñdhī laa.ī raat
ek karishma ik dhokā thā ek tahayyur-sāzī thī
lekin ik aalam ne ye samjhā ki din se Takrā.ī raat
ek nayā dar ek nayā ghar ek nayā hañgāma hai
ek na.e rahzan ke ghar ik nayā musāfir laa.ī raat
andhi rahon ki uljhan mein bechaari ghabrai raat
pahle lahu mein phir aansu mein phir kirnon mein nahai raat
ek parde ko uTh jaana tha ek chehre ko aana tha
kitni hasin thi kitni dilkash sharmai sharmai raat
har shaKH-e-gul mein thi ye narmi ghunche tak gir jate the
aaj har ek Tahni patthar hai kaisi aandhi lai raat
ek karishma ek dhoka tha ek tahayyur-sazi thi
lekin ek aalam ne ye samjha ki din se Takrai raat
ek naya dar ek naya ghar ek naya hangama hai
ek nae rahzan ke ghar ek naya musafir lai raat
