sunā hai tum ne apne āḳhirī lamhoñ meñ samjhā thā

ki tum merī hifāzat meñ ho mere bāzuoñ meñ ho

sunā hai bujhte bujhte bhī tumhāre sard o murda lab se

ek sho.ala shola-e-yāqūt-fām o rañg o ummīd-e-faroġh-e-zindagī-āhañg lapkā thā

hameñ ḳhud meñ chhupā liije

ye merā vo azāb-e-jāñ hai jo mujh ko

mire apne ḳhud apne hī jahannam meñ jalātā hai

tumhārā sīna-e-sīmīñ

tumhāre bāzūvān-e-mar-marīñ

mere liye

mujh ik havasnāk-e-faromāya kī ḳhātir

saaz o sāmān-e-nashāt o nashsha-e-ishrat-fuzūnī the

mire ayyāsh lamhoñ kī fusūñ-gar pur-junūnī ke liye

sad-lazzat āgīñ sad-karishma pur-zabonī the

suna hai tum ne apne aaKHiri lamhon mein samjha tha

ki tum meri hifazat mein ho mere bazuon mein ho

suna hai bujhte bujhte bhi tumhaare sard o murda lab se

ek shoala shola-e-yaqut-fam o rang o ummid-e-farogh-e-zindagi-ahang lapka tha

hamein KHud mein chhupa lije

ye mera wo azab-e-jaan hai jo mujh ko

mere apne KHud apne hi jahannam mein jalata hai

tumhaara sina-e-simin

tumhaare bazuwan-e-mar-marin

mere liye

mujh ek hawasnak-e-faromaya ki KHatir

saz o saman-e-nashat o nashsha-e-ishrat-fuzuni the

mere ayyash lamhon ki fusun-gar pur-jununi ke liye

sad-lazzat aagin sad-karishma pur-zaboni the

tumhein meri hawas-pesha

meri saffak qatil bewafai ka guman tak

is guman ka ek wahm-e-KHud gurezan tak nahin tha

kyun nahin tha kyun nahin tha kyun

koi hota koi to hota

jo mujh se meri saffak qatil bewafai ki saza mein

KHun thukwata

mujhe har lamhe ki suli pe laTkata

magar fariyaad koi bhi nahin koi

daregh uftad koi bhi

mujhe mafrur hona chahiye tha

aur main saffak-qatil bewafa KHun-rez-tar main

shahr mein KHud-wardati

shahr mein KHud-mast aazadana phirta hun
