katti nahin sard raat
dhalti nahin zard raat
raat judai ki raat
khali gilason ki samt
takti hui aankh men
qatra-e-shabnam nahin
kaun lahu men bahe
meri ragon men chale
tez ho sanson ka shor
jalne lage por por
aae samundar men josh
gir pade divar-e-hosh
sukhi hui shakh par
barg o samar khil uthin
aao miri niind ki
bikhri hui pattiyan
aaj sameto zara
kab se khula hai badan
is ko lapeto zara
ek shikan do shikan
bistar-e-tanhai par
phir se badha do zara
mujh ko rula do zara
ek pahar raat hai
raat judai ki raat
