dhani surmai sabz gulabi jaise man ka aanchal sham

dhānī surma.ī sabz gulābī jaise maañ kā āñchal shaam

kaise kaise rañg dikhā.e roz labālab chhāgal shaam

charvāhe ko ghar pahuñchā.e pahre-dār se ghar chhuḌvā.e

aate jaate chheḌtī jaa.e darvāze kī sāñkal shaam

sūraj ke pāpoñ kī gaThrī sar par laade thakī thakī sī

ḳhāmoshī se muñh laTkā.e chal detī hai paidal shaam

behis duniyā-dāroñ ko ho duniyā kī har chiiz mubārak

ġham-zādoñ kā sarmāyā haiñ aañsū aaheñ botal shaam

sūraj ke jaate hī apne rañg pe aa jaatī hai duniyā

jāne-būjhe chup rahtī hai shab ke moḌ pe komal shaam

sāñsoñ kī pur-shor Dagar pe raqs karegā sannāTā

chupke se jis roz achānak chhankā degī paa.el shaam

'badr' tumheñ kyā haal sunā.īñ itnā hī bas kaafī hai

tanhā.ī meñ kaT jaatī hai jaise-taise maḳhmal shaam

dhani surmai sabz gulabi jaise man ka aanchal sham

kaise kaise rang dikhae roz labaalab chhagal sham

charwahe ko ghar pahunchae pahre-dar se ghar chhuDwae

aate jate chheDti jae darwaze ki sankal sham

suraj ke papon ki gaThri sar par lade thaki thaki si

KHamoshi se munh laTkae chal deti hai paidal sham

behis duniya-daron ko ho duniya ki har chiz mubarak

gham-zadon ka sarmaya hain aansu aahen botal sham

suraj ke jate hi apne rang pe aa jati hai duniya

jaane-bujhe chup rahti hai shab ke moD pe komal sham

sanson ki pur-shor Dagar pe raqs karega sannaTa

chupke se jis roz achanak chhanka degi pael sham

'badr' tumhein kya haal sunain itna hi bas kafi hai

tanhai mein kaT jati hai jaise-taise maKHmal sham
