    sub.h hañstā sitāra tanhā

    kaun jaane raat bhar kis karb se guzrā hai

    in ghane peḌoñ se lambe tez dāñtoñ vaale ifrīt nikal kar

    TeḌhī Tāñgoñ bad-numā pairoñ se komal chāñdnī ke farsh par nāche

    khurdure hāthoñ se phūloñ ke jigar chaak kiye

    apnī nazroñ siyāhī se nikharte hue rañgoñ ke charāġhoñ ko bujhāyā

    apne nafrat-bhare sāñsoñ bhaḌaktī huī ātish meñ mohabbat mahaktī

    huī sandal ko bhasm kar Daalā

    sub.h hañstā sitāra tanhā

    kaun jaane din bhar ab kis aag ke dariyā se guzre

    āftāb apnī damaktī rath meñ

    shab ke ifrītoñ ko masnad par biThā.egā

    to sachchā.ī ke phūloñ par bhī moTī dhuul jam jā.egī

    āñkheñ pathrā jā.eñgī

    rañgoñ tamāshā to rahegā

    baas uḌ jā.egī

    koī zahr pyāla na hoñToñ se lagā.egā

    sitāra shaam ko apne lahū meñ phir nahā.egā

    subh ka hansta sitara tanha

    kaun jaane raat bhar kis karb se guzra hai

    in ghane peDon se lambe tez danton wale ifrit nikal kar

    TeDhi Tangon bad-numa pairon se komal chandni ke farsh par nache

    khurdure hathon se phulon ke jigar chaak kiye

    apni nazron ki siyahi se nikharte hue rangon ke charaghon ko bujhaya

    apne nafrat-bhare sanson ki bhaDakti hui aatish mein mohabbat ki mahakti

    hui sandal ko bhasm kar Dala

    subh ka hansta sitara tanha

    kaun jaane din bhar ab kis aag ke dariya se guzre

    aaftab apni damakti rath mein

    shab ke ifriton ko masnad par biThaega

    to sachchai ke phulon par bhi moTi dhul jam jaegi

    aankhen pathra jaengi

    rangon ka tamasha to rahega

    bas uD jaegi

    koi zahr ka pyala na honTon se lagaega

    sitara sham ko apne lahu mein phir nahaega
