    kaise Tahaltā hai chāñd āsmān pe

    jaise zabt pahlī manzil

    āvāz ke alāva bhī insān hai

    āñkhoñ ko chhū lene qīmat pe udaas mat ho

    qabr sharm abhī baaqī hai

    hañsī hamārī maut shahādat hai

    lahad meñ paidā hone vaale bachche

    hamārī maañ aañkh hai

    qabr to miTTī makr hai

    phir parinde sūraj se pahle kisī zikr karte haiñ

    āvāz ke alāva bhī insān hai

    TuuTe ho

    zarā aur lahū añgār karo

    ki maiñ ek be-libās aurat huuñ

    aur jitnī chāhūñ āñkheñ rakhtī huuñ

    maiñ ne āvāz ko tarāshā hai

    hai koī merā mujassama banāne vaalā

    apnī qismat pe udaas mat ho

    maut sharm abhī baaqī hai

    mujhe chādar dene vaale

    tujhe hayā tak dukh lag jaa.eñ

    mujhe lafz dene vaale

    kaash aurat bhī janāze ko kāñdhā de saktī

    har qadam zanjīr ma.alūm ho rahā hai aur merā dil tah kar ke rakh diyā

    gayā hai shor mujhe lahūluhān kar rahā hai maiñ

    apnī qaid kaaT rahī huuñ aur is qaid meñ kabhī

    haath kaaT kar pheñk detī huuñ kabhī

    āvāz kaaT kaaT kar pheñk rahī huuñ

    merā dil daldal meñ rahne vaalā kiiḌā hai aur maiñ qabr se

    dhutkārī huī laash

    saḌāñdī saḌāñd se merī āñkhoñ

    zā.iqa bad-rūh ho rahā hai

    aur maiñ insān pahlī aur āḳhirī ġhalatī par dum hilā.e

    bhauñktī rahī huuñ

    maiñ jab insān thī to chor aas tak na thī maiñ

    āñkhoñ meñ salīb aur dil meñ apnī laash

    liye phirtī huuñ

    sachchā.iyoñ ke zahr se marī huuñ

    lekin duniyā gorkan ko DhūñDhne ga.ī huī hai

    vo mujhe ābād kartā hai aur ābād kahtā hai

    maiñ harī-bharī pyaas se zarḳhez ho jaatī huuñ

    aur phūloñ ko miTTī meñ dabāne lagtī huuñ

    dard mere azhdahe naam hai

    aur saañp bhuuk merā ghar hai

    kaise Tahalta hai chand aasman pe

    jaise zabt ki pahli manzil

    aawaz ke alawa bhi insan hai

    aankhon ko chhu lene ki qimat pe udas mat ho

    qabr ki sharm abhi baqi hai

    hansi hamari maut ki shahadat hai

    lahad mein paida hone wale bachche

    hamari man aankh hai

    qabr to miTTi ka makr hai

    phir parinde suraj se pahle kisi ka zikr karte hain

    aawaz ke alawa bhi insan hai

    TuTe ho

    zara aur lahu angar karo

    ki main ek be-libas aurat hun

    aur jitni chahun aankhen rakhti hun

    main ne aawaz ko tarasha hai

    hai koi mera mujassama banane wala

    apni qismat pe udas mat ho

    maut ki sharm abhi baqi hai

    mujhe chadar dene wale

    tujhe haya tak dukh lag jaen

    mujhe lafz dene wale

    kash aurat bhi janaze ko kandha de sakti

    har qadam zanjir malum ho raha hai aur mera dil tah kar ke rakh diya

    gaya hai shor mujhe lahuluhan kar raha hai main

    apni qaid kaT rahi hun aur is qaid mein kabhi

    hath kaT kar phenk deti hun kabhi

    aawaz kaT kaT kar phenk rahi hun

    mera dil daldal mein rahne wala kiDa hai aur main qabr se

    dhutkari hui lash

    saDandi hi saDand se meri aankhon ka

    zaiqa bad-ruh ho raha hai

    aur main insan ki pahli aur aaKHiri ghalati par dum hilae

    bhaunkti ja rahi hun

    main jab insan thi to chor ki aas tak na thi main

    aankhon mein salib aur dil mein apni lash

    liye phirti hun

    sachchaiyon ke zahr se mari hun

    lekin duniya gorkan ko DhunDhne gai hui hai

    wo mujhe aabaad karta hai aur aabaad kahta hai

    main hari-bhari pyas se zarKHez ho jati hun

    aur phulon ko miTTi mein dabane lagti hun

    dard mere azhdahe ka nam hai

    aur sanp ki bhuk mera ghar hai
