मेरे लिए रात ने
आज फ़राहम* किया [faraaham=provide]
एक नया मरहला
नींदों ने ख़ाली किया
अश्कों से फ़िर भर दिया
कासा मेरी आँख का
और कहा कान में ...
मैंने हर एक जुर्म से
तुमको बरी कर दिया
मैंने सदा के लिए
तुमको रिहा कर दिया

जाओ जिधर चाहो तुम
जागो कि सो जाओ तुम
ख़्वाब का दर बंद है

शहरयार


Now read the Roman transliteration:


mere liye raat ne
aaj faraaham kiyaa
ek nayaa marhala

niindoN ne khaalii kiyaa
ashkoN se phir bhar diyaa
kaasa merii aaNkh kaa
aur kahaa kaan meN

main.Ne har ek jurm se
tumko barii kar diyaa
main.Ne sadaa ke liye
tumko rihaa kar diyaa

jaao jidhar chaho tum
jaago ki so jaao tum
Khwaab ka dar band hai

Shaharyar
