    maiñ ne kyā soch ke sahrā meñ dukāñ kholī hai

    lab-e-la.alīñ ke tasavvur meñ mañgā.e yāqūt

    najm laayā huuñ ki tartīb ho silk-dandāñ

    mah-e-yak-rū bhī to darkār hai abrū ke liye

    duur ufuq paar se thoḌī shafaq laayā huuñ

    ḳhuun meñ gūñdh ke bhaTTī meñ tapā.ūñgā use

    tab kahīñ surḳhī-e-ruḳhsār huvaidā hogī

    maiñ ne tayyār kiyā ḳhāk-e-kavākib se ḳhamīr

    kuchh nahīñ kuchh bhī nahīñ aaj azā-ḳhāne meñ

    aaj ḳhas-ḳhāna-e-ḳhvāhish meñ faqat raakh hai raakh

    vo kisī dast-e-hunar-var tarāshā huā til

    kaf-e-zau-rez ko sharmātā thā māh-e-kāmil

    vo tirī sā.ad-e-sīmīñ zamurrad bhī ḳhajil

    kuchh nahīñ kuchh bhī nahīñ aaj azā-ḳhāne meñ

    aaj bhī sochtā huuñ apne junūñ meñ aa kar

    maiñ ne kyā soch ke sahrā meñ dukāñ kholī thī

    main ne kya soch ke sahra mein dukan kholi hai

    lab-e-lalin ke tasawwur mein mangae yaqut

    najm laya hun ki tartib ho silk-dandan

    mah-e-yak-ru bhi to darkar hai abru ke liye

    dur ufuq par se thoDi si shafaq laya hun

    KHun mein gundh ke bhaTTi mein tapaunga use

    tab kahin surKHi-e-ruKHsar huwaida hogi

    main ne tayyar kiya KHak-e-kawakib se KHamir

    kuchh nahin kuchh bhi nahin aaj aza-KHane mein

    aaj KHas-KHana-e-KHwahish mein faqat rakh hai rakh

    wo kisi dast-e-hunar-war ka tarasha hua til

    kaf-e-zau-rez ko sharmata tha mah-e-kaamil

    wo teri saad-e-simin ka zamurrad bhi KHajil

    kuchh nahin kuchh bhi nahin aaj aza-KHane mein

    aaj bhi sochta hun apne junun mein aa kar

    main ne kya soch ke sahra mein dukan kholi thi
