    har taraf daur-e-farāmoshī hai

    zehn sahmā huā baiThā hai kahīñ

    apne atrāf hifāzat tanābeñ gaaḌe

    jab koī baat nahīñ yaad us ko

    phir ye dahshat sabab kyā ma.anī

    aur hifāzat junūñ kaisā hai

    Daro us vaqt se jab aisā ḳhauf

    jis ke asbāb nahīñ milte haiñ

    zindagānī meñ chalā aatā hai

    rūh-e-vijdān bhaTak jaatī hai

    tarz-e-afkār badal jaatī hai

    sahrā aa jaate haiñ dīvāroñ meñ

    āsmānoñ ke varaq khulte haiñ

    jauq-dar-jauq pare rūhoñ ke

    chalte-phirte nazar aa jaate haiñ

    aur zamīñ kāñch ke TukḌoñ tarah TūTtī hai

    vahm tasvīr meñ Dhal jaatā hai

    kam-nigāhī tasallut chup-chāp

    dūr-andeshī ko khā jaatā hai

    Daro us vaqt se jab aisā ḳhauf

    zindagānī meñ chalā aatā hai

    jis ke asbāb nahīñ milte haiñ

    har taraf daur-e-faramoshi hai

    zehn sahma hua baiTha hai kahin

    apne atraf hifazat ki tanaben gaDe

    jab koi baat nahin yaad us ko

    phir ye dahshat ka sabab kya mani

    aur hifazat ka junun kaisa hai

    Daro us waqt se jab aisa KHauf

    jis ke asbab nahin milte hain

    zindagani mein chala aata hai

    ruh-e-wijdan bhaTak jati hai

    tarz-e-afkar badal jati hai

    sahra aa jate hain diwaron mein

    aasmanon ke waraq khulte hain

    jauq-dar-jauq pare ruhon ke

    chalte-phirte nazar aa jate hain

    aur zamin kanch ke TukDon ki tarah TuTti hai

    wahm taswir mein Dhal jata hai

    kam-nigahi ka tasallut chup-chap

    dur-andeshi ko kha jata hai

    Daro us waqt se jab aisa KHauf

    zindagani mein chala aata hai

    jis ke asbab nahin milte hain
