    maiñ zinda thā

    magar maiñ tere surḳh nīl-gūñ safed bulbule meñ qaid thā

    havā vasī.a thī magar hudūd se rihā na thī

    na mere par shikasta the na merī saañs kam

    thā bulbule kā.enāt meñ mirā dam-qadam

    magar mirī uḌaan surḳh nīl-gūñ safed maqbare ke

    āḳhirī ḳhutūt se sivā na thī

    maiñ haal ke athāh pāniyoñ meñ ġharq

    guzashta vaqt ke bhañvar ke dast-e-ātishīñ meñ ek said-e-zard thā

    to maiñ ne kyā kiyā

    ki apnī saañs rok kar ke, āñkheñ miich kar ke sar ko aage kar ke

    shānoñ ko jhaTak ke

    ek jast meñ jast sard chhat ko toḌ kar

    maiñ us ke paar ho gayā

    tilism se sadā uThī: ''hameñ shikast ho ga.ī

    shikast ho ga.ī kast ho ga.ī ast ho ga.ī

    ........to ga.ī ........o ga.ī ........

    shab-e-barāt

    ātishīñ tamāshoñ samāñ

    uThā ke merī bachchiyoñ ne nā-gahāñ

    pachās paise ke anaar ke laboñ pe ek qatra naar rakh

    ḳhaak ko ye garm bosa kab nasīb thaa!

    anaar meñ jo qaid thā jo zarra zarra said thā

    vo jin ubal paḌā

    siyāhiyāñ safed surḳh nīl-gūñ tuyūr se chamak uThīñ

    magar na jaane phir kidhar tuyūr uḌ ga.e

    anaar ko shab-e-barāt ne nadī meñ dafn kar diyā

    sadā-e-bāzgasht qatra qatra kañkaroñ tarah ġharq ho ga.ī

    tilism rah gayā magar tilism meñ jo qaid thā

    vo us sadā ke saath kho gayā

    main zinda tha

    magar main tere surKH nil-gun safed bulbule mein qaid tha

    hawa wasia thi magar hudud se riha na thi

    na mere par shikasta the na meri sans kam

    tha bulbule ki kaenat mein mera hi dam-qadam

    magar meri uDan surKH nil-gun safed maqbare ke

    aaKHiri KHutut se siwa na thi

    main haal ke athah paniyon mein gharq

    ya guzashta waqt ke bhanwar ke dast-e-atishin mein ek said-e-zard tha

    to main ne kya kiya

    ki apni sans rok kar ke, aankhen mich kar ke sar ko aage kar ke

    shanon ko jhaTak ke

    ek jast mein hi jast ki si sard chhat ko toD kar

    main us ke par ho gaya

    tilism se sada uThi: hamen shikast ho gai

    shikast ho gai kast ho gai ast ho gai

    to gai o gai

    shab-e-baraat

    aatishin tamashon ka saman

    uTha ke meri bachchiyon ne na-gahan

    pachas paise ke anar ke labon pe ek qatra nar rakh di

    KHak ko ye garm bosa kab nasib tha!

    anar mein jo qaid tha jo zarra zarra said tha

    wo jin ubal paDa

    siyahiyan safed surKH nil-gun tuyur se chamak uThin

    magar na jaane phir kidhar tuyur uD gae

    anar ko shab-e-baraat ne nadi mein dafn kar diya

    sada-e-bazgasht qatra qatra kankaron ki tarah gharq ho gai

    tilism rah gaya magar tilism mein jo qaid tha

    wo us sada ke sath kho gaya
