har sū hai tārīkī chhā.ī tum bhī chup aur ham bhī chup
kis ne aisī sham.a jalā.ī tum bhī chup aur ham bhī chup
kis jānib hai apnī manzil dorāhe par aa pahuñche
kis ne aisī raah batā.ī tum bhī chup aur ham bhī chup
dasht-e-tapāñ meñ jaane kab se dil ne dī haiñ āvāzeñ
koī bhī āvāz na aa.ī tum bhī chup aur ham bhī chup
raah kisī kī takte takte taare bhī ab raakh hue
sub.h kī devī bhī muskā.ī tum bhī chup aur ham bhī chup
dard ke be-pāyāñ sahrā meñ duur talak hai sannāTā
zaḳhm-e-dil ne lī añgḌā.ī tum bhī chup aur ham bhī chup
