tamām shab kī dukhan, be-kalī, subuk ḳhvābī
numūd-e-sub.h ko darmāñ samajh ke kaaTī hai
ufuq se sub.h kī pahlī kiran ubhartī hai
tamām raat kī fariyād ik sukūt meñ chup
ḳhāmosh chhat ko taktī hai
aur ek aañkh jo sab dekhtī hai
numūd-e-sub.h kī zartār raushnī ke saath
mahakte phuul darīche se jhāñk kar dekheñ
