ḳhayāl thā ki gumāñ ko yaqīñ banā dūñgā
aur ab ye ḳhvāb likhūñgā bhī to miTā dūñgā

mujhe bhī saath hī le lo magar nahīñ yaaro
maiñ sust-rau huuñ tumhārī thakan baḌhā dūñgā

havā-e-shab mire sho.ale se intiqām na le
ki maiñ bujhā to ufuq tak dhoveñ uḌā dūñgā

baḌe shabāb se aa.egā sail-e-rañg ab ke
phir is meñ maiñ bhī to ik jū-e-ḳhūñ milā dūñgā

chalo ḳhamosh huā maiñ ab is sukūt ke ba.ad
na shab ko tuul na ham-sā.e ko sadā dūñgā

KHayal tha ki guman ko yaqin bana dunga
aur ab ye KHwab likhunga bhi to miTa dunga

mujhe bhi sath hi le lo magar nahin yaro
main sust-rau hun tumhaari thakan baDha dunga

hawa-e-shab mere shoale se intiqam na le
ki main bujha to ufuq tak dhowen uDa dunga

baDe shabab se aaega sail-e-rang ab ke
phir is mein main bhi to ek ju-e-KHun mila dunga

chalo KHamosh hua main ab is sukut ke baad
na shab ko tul na ham-sae ko sada dunga
