    maiñ sard-mehr zindagī se kyā talab karūñ

    talab to ek bahr hai

    zindagī to saañs lapaktī ek lahar hai

    jo aa ke phir guzar ga.ī

    chand saal us ke naqsh-e-pā

    yahīñ kahīñ kisī ke zehn meñ rahe

    maiñ dekhtā huuñ

    shāḳh-e-umr zard mausamoñ dhuup meñ

    isī ḳhayāl-e-ḳhām meñ

    ki vaqt ghaḌī qaid meñ hai

    barg barg jhuk ga.ī hai

    zindagī ne kyā diyā mujhe

    tarah tarah ke ārize dimāġh buḳhār

    iḳhtilāl aur havās ke shu.ūr malāl

    raat ko maiñ jāgtā rahūñ

    tamām din baqā aarzū meñ afsaroñ ke ḳhauf se

    nashist-gāh-e-intizār meñ bahut phīkī muskurāhaToñ ke saath

    faisle ke intizār meñ lahū gardishoñ ke saath

    zaat aziim saltanat ko aag meñ lipTā dekhtā rahūñ

    ye cigaretoñ nīl-gūñ dhuāñ ġhubār ġhubār

    bhāgtā savār asp sunahrī na.al rāste meñ chhoḌ kar kidhar gayā

    ye shor ab kidhar se aa rahā hai

    ġhaur se suno

    nahīñ ye kuchh nahīñ

    maiñ intizār tavīl sā.atoñ meñ nāḳhunoñ se mez ko bajā rahā huuñ

    par vo kāġhazoñ meñ ġharq hai

    bahut qadīm raat ibtidā se intihā ke lā-zavāl bahr meñ utar gayā huuñ

    saare din ke ġham ko maiñ

    nashe ik ridā meñ Dhāñp duuñ

    magar nasha harām jurm hai

    to phir palaT ke maiñ ḳhayāl meñ muqīm ishratoñ ko ā.inoñ meñ dekh luuñ

    lazīz thartharāte jism

    Dhol dhamak pe lahar lahar khil rahe haiñ

    al-amāñ muharramāt

    maiñ sard-mehr zindagī se kyā talab karūñ

    ki vo bhī ḳhud asiir hai

    main sard-mehr zindagi se kya talab karun

    talab to ek bahr hai

    zindagi to sans ki lapakti ek lahar hai

    jo aa ke phir guzar gai

    chand sal us ke naqsh-e-pa

    yahin kahin kisi ke zehn mein rahe

    main dekhta hun

    shaKH-e-umr zard mausamon ki dhup mein

    isi KHayal-e-KHam mein

    ki waqt ghaDi ki qaid mein hai

    barg barg jhuk gai hai

    zindagi ne kya diya mujhe

    tarah tarah ke aarize dimagh ka buKHar

    iKHtilal aur hawas ke shuur ka malal

    raat ko main jagta rahun

    tamam din baqa ki aarzu mein afsaron ke KHauf se

    nashist-gah-e-intizar mein bahut hi phiki muskurahaTon ke sath

    faisle ke intizar mein lahu ki gardishon ke sath

    zat ki azim saltanat ko aag mein lipTa dekhta rahun

    ye cigareton ka nil-gun dhuan ghubar hi ghubar

    bhagta sawar asp ka sunahri nal raste mein chhoD kar kidhar gaya

    ye shor ab kidhar se aa raha hai

    ghaur se suno

    nahin ye kuchh nahin

    main intizar ki tawil saaton mein naKHunon se mez ko baja raha hun

    par wo kaghazon mein gharq hai

    bahut qadim raat ibtida se intiha ke la-zawal bahr mein utar gaya hun

    sare din ke gham ko main

    nashe ki ek rida mein Dhanp dun

    magar nasha haram jurm hai

    to phir palaT ke main KHayal mein muqim ishraton ko aainon mein dekh lun

    laziz thartharaate jism

    Dhol ki dhamak pe lahar lahar khil rahe hain

    al-aman muharramat

    main sard-mehr zindagi se kya talab karun

    ki wo bhi KHud asir hai
