Raaten sachchi hain din jhuTe hain

chahe tum meri binai khurach Dalo phir bhi apne KHwab nahin chhoDunga
un ki lazzat aur aziyyat se main apna koi ahd nahin toDunga

tez nazar na-binaon ki aabaadi mein
kya main apne dhyan ki ye punji bhi ginwa dun

han mere KHwabon ko tumhaari subhon ki sard aur saya-gun tabiron se nafrat hai
in subhon ne sham ke hathon ab tak jitne suraj beche

wo sab ek barfani bhap ki chamkili aur chakkar khati golai the
so mere KHwabon ki raaten jalti aur dahakti raaten

aisi yaKH-basta tabiron ke har din se achchhi hain aur sachchi bhi hain
jis mein dhundla chakkar khata chamkila-pan chhe atraf ka rog bana hai

mere andhere bhi sachche hain
aur tumhaare rog ujale bhi jhuTe hain

raaten sachchi hain din jhuTe
jab tak din jhuTe hain jab tak

raaten sahna aur apne KHwabon mein rahna
KHwabon ko bahkane wale din ke ujalon se achchha hai

han main bahkaon ki dhund nahin oDhunga
chahe tum meri binai khurach Dalo main phir bhi apne KHwab nahin chhoDunga

apna ahd nahin toDunga
yahi to bas mera sab kuchh hai

mah o sal ke ghaarat-gar se meri Thani hai
meri jaan par aan bani hai

chahe kuchh ho mere aaKHiri sans talak ab chahe kuchh ho
