    mat bujhā dil-e-nādāñ

    sogvār sham'oñ ko

    ab bhī ġham ke māroñ

    aadhī raat baaqī hai

    ḳhvāb tahoñ meñ ab

    chhup ga.e haiñ kar

    zindagī ke saudāgar

    hai jahān-e-be-pāyāñ

    ek qarya-e-vīrāñ

    aur merī ye dhartī

    karvaTeñ badaltī hai

    jaise dard ke maare

    koī kuchh na kah paa.e

    chauñk chauñk uThtī hai

    rāste ḳhāmoshī

    maut jaise kartī ho

    zindagī se sargoshī

    maiñ ne ashk bo.e the

    jin fasurda āñkhoñ meñ

    un se ḳhuun ristā hai

    un se aag bahtī hai

    mere sāmne aa kar

    naach naach uThtī haiñ

    merī apnī tasvīreñ

    kitnī baar jab maiñ ne

    zindagī luTā.ī hai

    aur kisī chāhat meñ

    zalzale se aa.e haiñ

    āsmān TuuTā hai

    jaan par ban aa.ī hai

    shal hue haiñ ye shāne

    thak ga.ī haiñ āshā.eñ

    lekin aaj bhī hamdam

    ye udaas darvāze

    shāhrāh jānib

    jaise takte rahte haiñ

    dekh in darīchoñ par

    koī buuñd phir Tapkī

    niiñd ke daraḳhtoñ ko

    koī phir hilātā hai

    aur jaise rah rah kar

    mere kaan bajte haiñ

    maut ke qadam chaap

    merī nā-tamām ulfat

    aasrā dilātī hai

    aaj jaag kar kaaTo

    sā'at-e-fasurda ko

    aaj koī aa.egā

    aaj koī aa.egā

    mat bujha dil-e-nadan

    sogwar sham'on ko

    ab bhi gham ke maron ki

    aadhi raat baqi hai

    KHwab ki tahon mein ab

    chhup gae hain ja ja kar

    zindagi ke saudagar

    hai jahan-e-be-payan

    ek qarya-e-viran

    aur meri ye dharti

    karwaTen badalti hai

    jaise dard ke mare

    koi kuchh na kah pae

    chaunk chaunk uThti hai

    raste ki KHamoshi

    maut jaise karti ho

    zindagi se sargoshi

    main ne ashk boe the

    jin fasurda aankhon mein

    un se KHun rista hai

    un se aag bahti hai

    mere samne aa kar

    nach nach uThti hain

    meri apni taswiren

    kitni bar jab main ne

    zindagi luTai hai

    aur kisi ki chahat mein

    zalzale se aae hain

    aasman TuTa hai

    jaan par ban aai hai

    shal hue hain ye shane

    thak gai hain aashaen

    lekin aaj bhi hamdam

    ye udas darwaze

    shahrah ki jaanib

    jaise takte rahte hain

    dekh in darichon par

    koi bund phir Tapki

    nind ke daraKHton ko

    koi phir hilata hai

    aur jaise rah rah kar

    mere kan bajte hain

    maut ke qadam ki chap

    meri na-tamam ulfat

    aasra dilati hai

    aaj jag kar kaTo

    sa'at-e-fasurda ko

    aaj koi aaega

    aaj koi aaega
