bijli kaḌki badal garja main ḳhamosh raha
is kohram men bhi ai duniya main ḳhamosh raha
sub.h ki chaap ne mujh ko sada di main ne baat na ki
shaam ki chup ne mujh ko pukara main ḳhamosh raha
kitne giit bikherte mausam mere samne aa.e
main tha jaati rut ka saaya main ḳhamosh raha
guzre mere paas se ho kar shor bhare mele
sail-e-havadis tu ne dekha main ḳhamosh raha
kitne paani sar se guzre meri zaban na khuli
sahil sahil dariya dariya main ḳhamosh raha
‘ja.afar’ dekh ke gham barsati zindagiyon ke samay
biit ga.i is dil par kya kya main ḳhamosh raha
