der tak raushni rahi kal raat
main ne odhi thi chandni kal raat
ek muddat ke baad dhund chhutti
dil ne apni kahi suni kal raat
ungliyan asman chhuti thiin
haan miri dastaras men thi kal raat
uthta jaata tha parda-e-nisyan
ek ik baat yaad thi kal raat
taq-e-dil pe thi ghungruon ki sada
ik jhadi si lagi rahi kal raat
jugnuon ke se lamhe udte the
meri mutthi men aa gai kal raat
