bikhri thi har samt javani raat ghaneri hone tak
lekin main ne dil ki na maani raat ghaneri hone tak
dard ka dariya baḌhte baḌhte siine tak aa pahuncha hai
aur chaḌhega thoḌa paani raat ghaneri hone tak
aag pe chalna qismat men hai barf pe rukna majburi
kaun sunega apni kahani raat ghaneri hone tak
us ke bina ye gulshan bhi ab sahra jaisa lagta hai
lagta hai sab kuchh be-ma.ani raat ghaneri hone tak
ḳhun-e-jigar se ham ko charaghan karna hai so karte hain
apni hai ye riit purani raat ghaneri hone tak
jin honTon ne pyase rah kar ham ko apne jaam diye
yaad karo un ki qurbani raat ghaneri hone tak
dil men apne zaḳhm-e-tamanna ankhon men kuchh ḳhvab liye
barson ham ne ḳhaak hai chhani raat ghaneri hone tak
