faza ka habs chirti hui hawa uThe

fazā kā habs chīrtī huī havā uThe

safar meñ dhuup hai bahut koī ghaTā uThe

phirā.e jism par mire vo uñgliyāñ aise

ki sāz-e-rūh merā aaj jhanjhanā uThe

jo aur kuchh nahīñ to jugnuoñ ko kar raqsāñ

siyāh shab zarā zarā sī jagmagā uThe

mirī tarah tamām log be-zabāñ to nahīñ

kisī taraf kisī jagah se mas.ala uThe

mirā futūr ḳhud sadā.eñ de mujhe manzil

qadam ko chūmne mire ye rāsta uThe

na jaane sohbatoñ meñ is kī kaisā hai nasha

ki dar se har ik shaḳhs jhūmtā uThe

karo to zindagī meñ aisā kuchh karo 'saurabh'

mirī nazar meñ terā yaar martaba uThe

faza ka habs chirti hui hawa uThe

safar mein dhup hai bahut koi ghaTa uThe

phirae jism par mere wo ungliyan aise

ki saz-e-ruh mera aaj jhanjhana uThe

jo aur kuchh nahin to jugnuon ko kar raqsan

siyah shab zara zara si jagmaga uThe

meri tarah tamam log be-zaban to nahin

kisi taraf kisi jagah se masala uThe

mera futur KHud sadaen de mujhe manzil

qadam ko chumne mere ye rasta uThe

na jaane sohbaton mein is ki kaisa hai nasha

ki dar se har ek shaKHs jhumta uThe

karo to zindagi mein aisa kuchh karo 'saurabh'

meri nazar mein tera yar martaba uThe
