    kuchh nahīñ, ghar meñ mire kuchh bhī nahīñ

    koī kapḌā ki harārat ko badan meñ rakhtā

    luqma-e-nān-e-javīñ ḳhuun ko dhakkā detā

    man ko garmātā sakūñ, tan se lipaTtā bistar

    kuchh nahīñ, kuchh bhī nahīñ, kuchh bhī nahīñ!

    raat ko jism se chipkātī huī sard havā

    jism ke band masāmoñ meñ utartī ThanDak

    sañg-e-marmar huiiñ ḳhuun tarastī poreñ

    haath larzāñ the umīdoñ ne magar thaam liye

    paañv chalte rahe shahr-e-ḳhamoshāñ taraf

    parda-e-ḳhāk meñ lipTe hue be-jān vajūd!

    bā.is-e-nañg-e-zamīñ huuñ, magar ik baat batā

    jism miTTī ho to kapḌoñ zarūrat kyā hai?

    dekh! paivand-e-zamīñ! mere tan-e-uryāñ par

    dāġh-e-aflās paivand... ijāzat de de

    mar ke marte hue insān ko zinda kar de

    ek malbūs kamāne ijāzat de de!

    varna bhūkī hai bahut ḳhāk, kahāñ dekhegī

    jism khā jā.egī poshāk kahāñ dekhegī!

    kuchh nahin, ghar mein mere kuchh bhi nahin

    koi kapDa ki hararat ko badan mein rakhta

    luqma-e-nan-e-jawin KHun ko dhakka deta

    man ko garmata sakun, tan se lipaTta bistar

    kuchh nahin, kuchh bhi nahin, kuchh bhi nahin!

    raat ko jism se chipkati hui sard hawa

    jism ke band masamon mein utarti ThanDak

    sang-e-marmar si huin KHun tarasti poren

    hath larzan the umidon ne magar tham liye

    panw chalte hi rahe shahr-e-KHamoshan ki taraf

    parda-e-KHak mein lipTe hue be-jaan wajud!

    bais-e-nang-e-zamin hun, magar ek baat bata

    jism miTTi ho to kapDon ki zarurat kya hai?

    dekh! paiwand-e-zamin! mere tan-e-uryan par

    dagh-e-aflas ka paiwand ijazat de de

    mar ke marte hue insan ko zinda kar de

    ek malbus kamane ki ijazat de de!

    warna bhuki hai bahut KHak, kahan dekhegi

    jism kha jaegi poshak kahan dekhegi!
