MORE BYHamida Shaheen

    raat kitnī sāhir hai

    gard se aTe chehre

    baḌh ke thaam letī hai

    apne narm hāthoñ meñ

    din shor kānoñ se

    phīke manzar āñkhoñ se

    chun ke pheñk detī hai

    be-karāñ añdheroñ meñ

    muzmahil thake-māñde

    laḌkhaḌāte jismoñ ko

    baḌh ke thaam letī hai

    raat apnī bāñhoñ meñ

    raat kitnī māhir hai

    jabr aur mashaqqat

    saḳhtiyāñ bhulāne meñ

    dostī nibhāne meñ

    be-sukūn zehnoñ ko

    loriyāñ sunāne meñ

    jāgne sulāne meñ

    raat kitnī māhir hai

    raat kitnī behis hai

    us āstīnoñ meñ

    kitne saañp palte haiñ

    tā-sahar gunāhoñ ke

    kaise daur chalte haiñ

    raat jaise gūñgī hai

    dekhtī hai saarā kuchh

    aur kuchh nahīñ kahtī

    raat jaise bahrī hai

    siskiyāñ nahīñ suntī

    hausla nahīñ detī

    jin kashtiyoñ ko ġham

    zabt ke jazīre par

    Therne nahīñ detā

    jin ko bār-e-bad-baḳhtī

    ziist ke samundar meñ

    tairne nahīñ detā

    reg-e-sāhil-e-shab par

    kaise sar paTaḳhte haiñ

    raat jaise andhī hai

    aasrā nahīñ detī

    dost nahīñ bantī

    raat kitnī behis hai

    raat kitni sahir hai

    gard se aTe chehre

    baDh ke tham leti hai

    apne narm hathon mein

    din ka shor kanon se

    phike manzar aankhon se

    chun ke phenk deti hai

    be-karan andheron mein

    muzmahil thake-mande

    laDkhaDate jismon ko

    baDh ke tham leti hai

    raat apni banhon mein

    raat kitni mahir hai

    jabr aur mashaqqat ki

    saKHtiyan bhulane mein

    dosti nibhane mein

    be-sukun zehnon ko

    loriyan sunane mein

    jagne sulane mein

    raat kitni mahir hai

    raat kitni behis hai

    us ki aastinon mein

    kitne sanp palte hain

    ta-sahar gunahon ke

    kaise daur chalte hain

    raat jaise gungi hai

    dekhti hai sara kuchh

    aur kuchh nahin kahti

    raat jaise bahri hai

    siskiyan nahin sunti

    hausla nahin deti

    jin ki kashtiyon ko gham

    zabt ke jazire par

    Therne nahin deta

    jin ko bar-e-bad-baKHti

    zist ke samundar mein

    tairne nahin deta

    reg-e-sahil-e-shab par

    kaise sar paTaKHte hain

    raat jaise andhi hai

    aasra nahin deti

    dost hi nahin banti

    raat kitni behis hai
