Chupp k nikla tha apny ghar se chand

Chupp k nikla tha apny ghar se chand
gir gya raat k shajar se cha~nd

aek khiRki khuli nahi shab bhar
aur guzra nahi idhar se cha~nd

raat paooN paTkHakhti phirti hai
jab se utth kar gya idhar se cha~nd

dasht meiN kh~awb ghull gya saara
raat bhar aasmaaN se barsy cha~nd

dekhti heiN falak se wo aankheN
jhaankta hai kabhi kha~n~Dar se chand

aur phir umr bhar bhaTakty rahy
hum yahaN se chaly, udhar se chand~!!
