Khoyaa khoyaa udaas saa hogaa,
tum se vo shaKhs jab milaa hogaa,


qurb kaa zikr jab chalaa hogaa,
daarmiyaa.N ko_ii faasalaa hogaa,

[qurb = nearness]

ruuh se ruuh ho chukii bad_zan,
jism se jism kab judaa hogaa,

[ruuh = soul; bad_zan = disillusioned]

phir bulaayaa hai us ne Khat likh kar,
saamane ko_ii masa'laa hogaa,

 

ghar me.n sab log so rahe honge,
phuul aa.Ngan me.n jal chukaa hogaa,

kal kii baate.n karoge jab logo,
Khauf saa dil me.n ruu_numaa hogaa.

[ ruu_numaa =appear]
