maine uTh kar ajab tamasha dekha aadhi raat ko
maiñ ne uTh kar 'ajab tamāshā dekhā aadhī raat ko
ruuh ko andhī ruuh bulā.e haath pukāre haat ko
jaane kyā hone vaalā hai niiñd na aa.e ḳhauf se
raat Darā.e shahr Darā.e ek akelī zaat ko
us ne telephone kiyā hai aur kisī ke saath hai
merā us kā samjhautā hai kaun baḌhā.e baat ko
maiñ jis ke pīchhe bhāgā huuñ kaisī pāgal ḳhush-bū hai
jaañ tire dāman ko tarse dil ro.e tere saat ko
vo mere ghar kā darvāza jaise zindāñ khultā hai
maiñ apne ghar lauT rahā huuñ dastak do hālāt ko
main ne uTh kar 'ajab tamasha dekha aadhi raat ko
ruh ko andhi ruh bulae hath pukare hat ko
jaane kya hone wala hai nind na aae KHauf se
raat Darae shahr Darae ek akeli zat ko
us ne telephone kiya hai aur kisi ke sath hai
mera us ka samjhauta hai kaun baDhae baat ko
main jis ke pichhe bhaga hun kaisi pagal KHush-bu hai
jaan tere daman ko tarse dil roe tere sat ko
wo mere ghar ka darwaza jaise zindan khulta hai
main apne ghar lauT raha hun dastak do haalat ko
