suraj hai naya chand naya taare na.e hain
ye kya pas-e-duniya hai jo ham dekh rahe hain
mausam to ka.i aa.e magar ḳhvab hamare
sukhe hue patton ki tarah girte rahe hain
har lamha koi iinT ukhaḌ jaati hai jis ki
ham log usi divar ke saa.e men khaḌe hain
ḳhud apne hi saa.e ne hamen nicha dikhaya
ham sochte the ham sabhi sayon se baḌe hain
vo ek bhanvar sunte hain dilkash hai ghazab ka
hain kitne safine jo vahan Duub chuke hain
rangin dukanon men saje hain jo khilaune
andar se agar dekho to sab TuuTe hue hain
‘betab’ numayan nahin kuchh aise magar haan
in lambi qataron men kahin ham bhi khaḌe hain
