    shaam hote ghar mujh se chhoTā paḌ jaatā hai

    maiñ rastoñ bad-duā par niklā huuñ

    jahāñ āñkhoñ ko chehre kamāne se fursat nahīñ

    lagtā hai tanhā.ī mujh se uub ga.ī hai

    sāñseñ mailī ho rahī thiiñ

    miTTī ne mujhe phuul banā diyā

    ḳhushbū havā dost ho jaa.e

    to be-rañge log rañg rañg bāteñ

    karte haiñ

    (vo ḳhvāh kitne bhī chhoTe ho jaa.eñ

    achchhā mausam in par kabhī puurā nahīñ ātā)

    bad-zabānoñ ko mālūm nahīñ

    uryānī sirf āñkhoñ par jachtī hai

    maiñ zamīn par girā huā chāñd huuñ

    qadmoñ se pahle dīvār mujhe phalāñg rahī hai

    muñDer par dharā charāġh mujh se ziyādā raushan hai!

    maiñ bhī to maiñ huuñ

    ek gunāh ke evaz apnā saarī nekiyāñ

    ḳharch kar baiThtā huuñ

    ḳhāmoshī ke ḳhālī badan meñ

    koī dhun mujhe gungunātī rahtī hai

    udāsī aur kahāñ rahe

    kaash ḳhudā mujhe dekh rahā ho!

    sham hote hi ghar mujh se chhoTa paD jata hai

    main raston ki bad-dua par nikla hun

    jahan aankhon ko chehre kamane se fursat nahin

    lagta hai tanhai mujh se ub gai hai

    sansen maili ho rahi thin

    miTTi ne mujhe phul bana diya

    KHushbu hawa ki dost ho jae

    to be-range log rang rang ki baaten

    karte hi hain

    (wo KHwah kitne bhi chhoTe ho jaen

    achchha mausam in par kabhi pura nahin aata)

    bad-zabanon ko malum nahin

    uryani sirf aankhon par jachti hai

    main zamin par gira hua chand hun

    qadmon se pahle diwar mujhe phalang rahi hai

    munDer par dhara charagh mujh se ziyaada raushan hai!

    main bhi to main hun

    ek gunah ke ewaz apna sari nekiyan

    KHarch kar baiThta hun

    KHamoshi ke KHali badan mein

    koi dhun mujhe gungunati rahti hai

    udasi aur kahan rahe

    kash KHuda mujhe dekh raha ho!
