aaj dar-pesh hai phir se mujhe karbal kā safar

aaj kuchh mere taraf-dār bhī kam aa.e haiñ

aaj dar-pesh hai phir se mujhe karbal ka safar

aaj kuchh mere taraf-dar bhi kam aae hain

apnī tasvīr aise mat dekho

aañkh ko aa.ina nahīñ karte

apni taswir aise mat dekho

aankh ko aaina nahin karte

tum ko ma.alūm kyā hai āzādī

tum parinde rihā nahīñ karte

tum ko malum kya hai aazadi

tum parinde riha nahin karte

chaltā hai saath saath ḳhamoshī kā ik hujūm

thak kar gireñge ham to sadā.eñ lagā.eñge

chalta hai sath sath KHamoshi ka ek hujum

thak kar girenge hum to sadaen lagaenge

aa ga.e haiñ 'abīr' kūche meñ

pahlī barsāt aur ham donoñ

aa gae hain 'abir' kuche mein

pahli barsat aur hum donon
