    bahut dinoñ se

    vo shāḳh-e-mahtāb kaT chukī hai

    ki jis pe tum ne giraft-e-va.ada reshmī shaal ke sitāre sajā diye the

    bahut dinoñ se

    vo gard-e-ehsās chhaT chukī hai

    ki jis ke zarroñ pe tum ne

    palkoñ jhālroñ ke tamām nīlam luTā diye the

    aur ab to yuuñ hai ki jaise

    lab-basta hijratoñ har ek lamha

    tavīl sadiyoñ ko oḌh kar saañs le rahā hai

    aur ab to yuuñ hai ki jaise tum ne

    pahāḌ rātoñ ko

    merī andhī ujaaḌ āñkhoñ meñ

    reza reza basā diyā hai

    ki jaise maiñ ne

    figār-dil hunar-asāsa

    kahīñ chhupā kar bhulā diyā hai

    aur ab to yuuñ hai ki

    apnī āñkhoñ pe haath rakh kar

    mire badan par saje hue ābloñ se bahtā lahū na dekho

    mujhe kabhī surḳh-rū na dekho

    na merī yādoñ ke jalte-bujhte nishāñ kuredo

    na mere maqtal ḳhaak dekho

    aur ab to yuuñ hai ki

    apnī āñkhoñ ke ḳhvāb

    apne darīda-dāman ke chaak dekho

    ki gard-e-ehsās chhaT chukī hai

    ki shāḳh-e-mahtāb kaT chukī hai

    bahut dinon se

    wo shaKH-e-mahtab kaT chuki hai

    ki jis pe tum ne giraft-e-wada ki reshmi shaal ke sitare saja diye the

    bahut dinon se

    wo gard-e-ehsas chhaT chuki hai

    ki jis ke zarron pe tum ne

    palkon ki jhaalron ke tamam nilam luTa diye the

    aur ab to yun hai ki jaise

    lab-basta hijraton ka har ek lamha

    tawil sadiyon ko oDh kar sans le raha hai

    aur ab to yun hai ki jaise tum ne

    pahaD raaton ko

    meri andhi ujaD aankhon mein

    reza reza basa diya hai

    ki jaise main ne

    figar-dil ka hunar-asasa

    kahin chhupa kar bhula diya hai

    aur ab to yun hai ki

    apni aankhon pe hath rakh kar

    mere badan par saje hue aablon se bahta lahu na dekho

    mujhe kabhi surKH-ru na dekho

    na meri yaadon ke jalte-bujhte nishan kuredo

    na mere maqtal ki KHak dekho

    aur ab to yun hai ki

    apni aankhon ke KHwab

    apne darida-daman ke chaak dekho

    ki gard-e-ehsas chhaT chuki hai

    ki shaKH-e-mahtab kaT chuki hai
