mujhko malum tha main aur sanwar jaunga
mujh ko ma.alūm thā maiñ aur sañvar jā.ūñgā
ghar se niklūñgā to har samt bikhar jā.ūñgā
raaz maujoñ ke samundar ne batā.e haiñ mujhe
yahāñ Dūbūñgā kahīñ aur ubhar jā.ūñgā
abhī sustā.ūñgā kuchh der isī dorāhe par
ba.ad meñ sochūñgā dekhūñgā kidhar jā.ūñgā
maiñ to barzaḳh ke añdheroñ meñ jalā.ūñgā charāġh
maiñ nahīñ vo ki jo maut aa.ī to mar jā.ūñgā
zindagī yuuñ tujhe rahne nahīñ dūñgā be-rañg
terī tasvīr meñ kuchh rañg to bhar jā.ūñgā
maiñ huuñ dariyā hai ravānī mirī daa.im 'betāb'
koī sailāb nahīñ huuñ ki utar jā.ūñgā
mujh ko malum tha main aur sanwar jaunga
ghar se niklunga to har samt bikhar jaunga
raaz maujon ke samundar ne batae hain mujhe
yahan Dubunga kahin aur ubhar jaunga
abhi sustaunga kuchh der isi dorahe par
baad mein sochunga dekhunga kidhar jaunga
main to barzaKH ke andheron mein jalaunga charagh
main nahin wo ki jo maut aai to mar jaunga
zindagi yun tujhe rahne nahin dunga be-rang
teri taswir mein kuchh rang to bhar jaunga
main hun dariya hai rawani meri daim 'betab'
koi sailab nahin hun ki utar jaunga
