din dhala Raat Phir Aa Gai So Raho So Raho

Nasir Kazmi

din dhala raat phir aa gai so raho so raho

manzilon chha gai khamushi so raho so raho

saara din tapte suraj ki garmi men jalte rahe

thandi thandi hava phir chali so raho so raho

garm sunsan qariyon ki dharti mahakne lagi

khaak rashk-e-iram ban gai so raho so raho

razm-gah-e-jahan ban gai ja-e-aman-o-aman

hai yahi vaqt ki ragni so raho so raho

kaise sunsan hain asman chup khade hain makan

hai faza ajnabi ajnabi so raho so raho

thak gae naaqa o sarban tham gae karvan

ghantiyon ki sada so gai so raho so raho

chandni aur dhuen ke siva duur tak kuchh nahin

so gai shahr ki har gali so raho so raho

gardish-e-vaqt ki loriyan raat ki raat hain

phir kahan ye hava ye nami so raho so raho

saari basti ke log is madhur lai men khoe gae

duur bajne lagi bansuri so raho so raho

duur shakhon ke jhurmut men jugnu bhi gum ho gae

chand men so gai chandni so raho so raho

ghar ke divar-o-dar raah tak tak ke shal ho gae

ab na aaega shayad koi so raho so raho

sust raftar taare bhi ankhen jhapakne lage

gham ke maaro ghadi do ghadi so raho so raho

munh-andhere hi ‘nasir’ kise dhundne chal diye

duur hai subh-e-raushan abhi so raho so raho
