raat chup-chap dabe panw chale jati hai
raat khamosh hai roti nahin hansti bhi nahin
kanch ka nila sa gumbad hai uda jata hai
khali khali koi bajra sa baha jata hai
chand ki kirnon mein wo roz sa resham bhi nahin
chand ki chikni dali hai ki ghuli jati hai
aur sannaton ki ek dhul udi jati hai
kash ek bar kabhi nind se uth kar tum bhi
hijr ki raaton mein ye dekho to kya hota hai
