    tumhārī ḳhūb-sūratī hai maut ḳhayāl

    bāġhoñ meñ is baar kuchh ziyāda khile haiñ gulāb

    dekho in moroñ āñkhoñ meñ bādaloñ tavīl intizār

    hamārī bechārgī tumhāre nāz-o-andāz

    tārīḳh gavāh hai

    kitābeñ bharī paḌī hai zinda afsānoñ se

    is kashmakash hāsil kyā hai

    vasl firāq

    ye āḌī-tirchhī lakīreñ

    jin se bane ho.e dā.ere ko ham mulk kahte haiñ

    jahāñ āzādī ke liye rūheñ rahtī haiñ taḌaptī

    qaid-ḳhāne nahīñ to aur kyā haiñ

    yug biit ga.e

    vaqt badal gayā

    kitābeñ chaaT Daalī ga.iiñ

    lekin kahīñ koī masīhā sach kahne ko aaj bhī nahīñ tayyār

    kahte haiñ ki āñkhoñ meñ chhupī huī hotī hai

    maut aahaT

    ghar ho bāzār kisī se nazar milāte

    in dinoñ hone lagtī hai ghabrāhaT

    kyā nafāsat se chābuk mārte haiñ hukkām

    maza aa rahā hai kahte haiñ avaam

    tumhaari KHub-surati hai ya maut ka KHayal

    baghon mein is bar kuchh ziyaada hi khile hain gulab

    dekho in moron ki aankhon mein baadalon ka tawil intizar

    hamari bechaargi tumhaare naz-o-andaz

    tariKH gawah hai

    kitaben bhari paDi hai zinda afsanon se

    is kashmakash ka hasil kya hai

    wasl ya firaq

    ye aaDi-tirchhi si lakiren

    jin se bane hoe daere ko hum mulk kahte hain

    jahan aazadi ke liye ruhen rahti hain taDapti

    qaid-KHane nahin to aur kya hain

    yug bit gae

    waqt badal gaya

    kitaben chaT Dali gain

    lekin kahin koi masiha sach kahne ko aaj bhi nahin tayyar

    kahte hain ki aankhon mein chhupi hui hoti hai

    maut ki aahaT

    ghar ho ya bazar kisi se nazar milate hi

    in dinon hone lagti hai ghabrahaT

    kya nafasat se chabuk marte hain hukkaam

    maza aa raha hai kahte hain awam
