Raat bhar pi ke laDkhaDaate raho,

Raat bhar pi ke laDkhaDaate raho,
subah masjid mein sar jhukaate raho

toD Daalo tilisme boo e gul
mausam e gul mein kHaak uDaate raho

mahel taameer kar lo dariyaa mein
Ret mein kashtiyaa.n chalaate raho

hijr ki shab guzar hi jaayegi
taazaa filmo.n ke geet gaate raho

phoo.ns mein aag dhar ke haT jaao
chain ki baa.nsuri bajaate raho

mat Daro nanhe munne olo.n se
beDhaDak apnaa sar mu.nDaate raho

Mohammad Alvi
