    raat zulf mo'attar na badan sho’la-fagan

    sard āġhosh-e-fazā chāñd ke māthe pe thakan

    koī ham-raqs koī saaz nahīñ pahlū meñ

    sirf āvāz sulagtī hai mire kānoñ meñ

    khiḌkiyāñ band kiye log siyah-ḳhānoñ meñ

    rāhat-e-qalb ko DhūñDeñge in afsānoñ meñ

    jin tahrīr meñ āġhāz se anjām talak

    harf-dar-harf ubaltī hai aziyyat sharāb

    guzre lamhoñ bhī rakhte haiñ jo uñglī pe hisāb

    vo kisī ġhaar meñ dubke liye hāthoñ meñ kitāb

    muntazir hoñge ki sūraj ke sharāre chamkeñ

    taaki alfāz ke sīnoñ siyāhī pighle

    koī zī-hosh agar hai to sañbhal kar nikle

    shahr-e-tārīk meñ daanā chalī hai na chale

    qurbateñ saañp DāḌhoñ se ziyāda mohlik

    fāsle dhund meñ malbūs bhayānak chehre

    zaḳhm har raah chhātī pe abhī haiñ gahre

    raushnī qaid yahāñ aur nazar par pahre

    rāh-rau saḳht añdheroñ ke siyah dāġhoñ ko

    apne 'āriz ke pasīne se nahīñ dho saktā

    ḳhuub is haal pe rotā maiñ agar ro saktā

    lekin afsos ki aisā bhī nahīñ ho saktā

    murda rūhoñ sukūñ lūTne vaalā Dhoñgī

    barbat-e-aish-o-tarab chheḌ rahā hai dekho

    sāmne ḳhauf aaseb khaḌā hai dekho

    shahr-e-tārīk daraḳhtoñ pe Tañgā hai dekho

    laakh chillā.e koī kar ke ab in rāhoñ meñ

    koī darvāza khulegā na koī aa.egā

    raat ki zulf mo'attar na badan sho’la-fagan

    sard aaghosh-e-faza chand ke mathe pe thakan

    koi ham-raqs koi saz nahin pahlu mein

    sirf aawaz sulagti hai mere kanon mein

    khiDkiyan band kiye log siyah-KHanon mein

    rahat-e-qalb ko DhunDenge in afsanon mein

    jin ki tahrir mein aaghaz se anjam talak

    harf-dar-harf ubalti hai aziyyat ki sharab

    guzre lamhon ka bhi rakhte hain jo ungli pe hisab

    wo kisi ghaar mein dubke liye hathon mein kitab

    muntazir honge ki suraj ke sharare chamken

    taki alfaz ke sinon ki siyahi pighle

    koi zi-hosh agar hai to sanbhal kar nikle

    shahr-e-tarik mein dana ki chali hai na chale

    qurbaten sanp ki DaDhon se ziyaada mohlik

    fasle dhund mein malbus bhayanak chehre

    zaKHm har rah ki chhati pe abhi hain gahre

    raushni qaid yahan aur nazar par pahre

    rah-rau saKHt andheron ke siyah daghon ko

    apne 'ariz ke pasine se nahin dho sakta

    KHub is haal pe rota main agar ro sakta

    lekin afsos ki aisa bhi nahin ho sakta

    murda ruhon ka sukun luTne wala Dhongi

    barbat-e-aish-o-tarab chheD raha hai dekho

    samne KHauf ka aaseb khaDa hai dekho

    shahr-e-tarik daraKHton pe Tanga hai dekho

    lakh chillae koi kar ke ab in rahon mein

    koi darwaza khulega na koi aaega
