    ajiib log haiñ

    ham ahl-e-e'tibār kitne bad-nasīb log haiñ

    jo raat jāgne thī vo saarī raat

    ḳhvāb dekh dekh kar guzārte rahe

    jo naam bhūlne thā us ek naam ko

    galī galī pukārte rahe

    jo khel jītne thā vo khel hārte rahe

    ajiib log haiñ

    ham ahl-e-e'tibār kitne bad-nasīb log haiñ

    kisī se bhī to qarz-e-ābrū adā nahīñ huā

    lahū-luhān sā.atoñ faisla nahīñ huā

    baras guzar ga.e haiñ koī mo.ajaza nahīñ huā

    vo jal-bujhā ki aag jis ke shola-e-nafas meñ thī

    vo tiir khā gayā kamān jis dastaras meñ thī

    sipāh-e-mahr fasīl-e-shab ko intizār hai

    kab aa.egā vo shaḳhs jis sab ko intizār hai

    ham ahl-e-e'tibār kitne bad-nasīb log haiñ

    ajiib log haiñ

    ham ahl-e-e'tibār kitne bad-nasīb log haiñ

    TO A DESPONDENT EVENING

    ajib log hain

    hum ahl-e-e'tibar kitne bad-nasib log hain

    jo raat jagne ki thi wo sari raat

    KHwab dekh dekh kar guzarte rahe

    jo nam bhulne ka tha us ek nam ko

    gali gali pukarte rahe

    jo khel jitne ka tha wo khel haarte rahe

    ajib log hain

    hum ahl-e-e'tibar kitne bad-nasib log hain

    kisi se bhi to qarz-e-abru ada nahin hua

    lahu-luhan saaton ka faisla nahin hua

    baras guzar gae hain koi moajaza nahin hua

    wo jal-bujha ki aag jis ke shola-e-nafas mein thi

    wo tir kha gaya kaman jis ki dastaras mein thi

    sipah-e-mahr ka fasil-e-shab ko intizar hai

    kab aaega wo shaKHs jis ka sab ko intizar hai

    hum ahl-e-e'tibar kitne bad-nasib log hain

    ajib log hain

    hum ahl-e-e'tibar kitne bad-nasib log hain

    TO A DESPONDENT EVENING
