ye raat bhar kaun meri aankhon mein jagta hai
ye kis ki aahat ki justuju mein tamam raste malul-o-be-khwab ho gae hain

abad ke darban ne umidon ke dar pe tala laga diya hai
ye meri raaten ye meri aankhen ye mere aansu kai kai mah ke musalsal jage hue hain

main thak chuka hun
so ai mere ghar ke sare darwazo aur daricho

suno agar wo kabhi bhi aae to dhyan rakhna
mujhe bahut nind aa rahi hai

main ab ke soya to phir kabhi bhi nahin jagunga
