wo andhera hai jidhar jate hain hum
apni diwaron se takraate hain hum

katte hain raat jaane kis tarah
subh-dam ghar se nikal aate hain hum

band kamre mein sukun milne laga
jab hawa chalti hai ghabraate hain hum

hae wo baaten jo kah sakte nahin
aur tanhai mein dohraate hain hum

zindagi ki kashmakash 'baqi' na puchh
nind jab aati hai so jate hain hum
