phir baje mere KHayalon mein sunahre kangan

bahut muKHtasar sa taaruf hai mera

jhilmilate hue sapnon ka swayambar ban kar

apne mathe par sajae hue sandal ka tilak

maine dekha jab aadmi ka lahu

os mein bhigi hui tanhaiyon ke jism se

jhuk gain mil ke ajnabi aankhen

teri KHush-rang chuDiyan ab tak

na ahl-e-mai-kada ne muskura kar baat ki humse

kitne pakiza hain nau-KHez jawani ke kalas

dur pipal ki buDhi shaKHon mein

kitne sapnon ke mukuT TuT gae ek pal mein

dida-e-dil ko yun nazar aaya

sansanati hui hawa ki tarah

raat bojhal bhi hai bhayanak bhi
