Chaa.Nd maddham hai aasmaa.N chup hai ,
nii.nd kii god me.n jahaa.N chup hai,
duur vaadii me.n duudhiyaa baadaal ,
jhuk ke parbatko pyaar karate hai.n ,
dil me.n naakaam hasarate.n lekar ,
ham teraa i.ntazaar karate hai.n,
in bahaaro.n ke saaye me.n aa jaa ,
phir mohabbat javaa.N rahe na rahe ,
zindagii tere naa-muraado.n par ,
kal talak meharabaa.N rahe na rahe,
roz kii tarah aaj bhii taare ,
subah kii gard me.n na kho jaaye.N ,
aa tere Gam me.n jaagatii aa.Nkhe.n ,
kam se kam ek raat so jaaye.N,
chaa.Nd maddham hai aasmaa.N chup hai ,
nii.nd kii god me.n jahaa.N chup hai.
