churasta

kinnī annhī hai ih raat !

bujh ga.e saare chirāġh,

chauk dī battī bināñ

chauk dī marī.al jahī battī bināñ

kiran chānaN dī kitoñ vī pā rahī nā koī jhaat .

sunghi.ā is nuuñ udāsī-sapp ne,

sauñ gi.ā ki mar gi.ā ih shahir hai ?

hauke bhardī sog de

hai pauN sāhoñ ukkhḌī,

phūkrāñ ne mārde nhere de naag,

is phazā dī rag rag vich zahir hai,

kahir hai, haa.e kahir hai .

raat kinnī siit hai!

dil kise dī nukkre vī chiNag baakī hai koī ?

bhet nā koī bhet naa,

ahisās ThanDā ho rihā,

sunn hundī jā rahī hai chetnā .

chauhīñ pāsīñ raat annhī siit hai,

kinnā aukhā hai churastā chhaDDNā !

haa.e haDDāñ vich sikkā bhar gi.ā .

sachch te pardā si.aah

te suujh dī hoī bavāh .

chauk dī marī.al jahī battī

kise nuuñ kī vikhā sakdī e raah !

aiñve ham-dardī jahī jatlā rahī,

kujh kahindī kahindī e thathlā rahī .

maut dā pahirā sahī

phir vī āḳhar shahir hai,

ai manā, chal pher koī khaTkhaTā ke vekh dar !

nā sahī koī umiid

par koī hiila taañ kar

kinni annhi hai ih raat !

bujh gae sare chiragh,

chauk di batti binan

chauk di marial jahi batti binan

kiran chanaN di kiton wi pa rahi na koi jhat

sunghia is nun udasi-sapp ne,

saun gia ki mar gia ih shahir hai ?

hauke bhardi sog de

hai pauN sahon ukkhDi,

phukran ne marde nhere de nag,

is phaza di rag rag wich zahir hai,

kahir hai, hae kahir hai

raat kinni sit hai!

dil kise di nukkre wi chiNag baki hai koi ?

bhet na koi bhet na,

ahisas ThanDa ho riha,

sunn hundi ja rahi hai chetna

chauhin pasin raat annhi sit hai,

kinna aukha hai churasta chhaDDNa !

hae haDDan wich sikka bhar gia

sachch te parda siah

te sujh di hoi bawah

chauk di marial jahi batti

kise nun ki wikha sakdi e rah !

ainwe ham-dardi jahi jatla rahi,

kujh kahindi kahindi e thathla rahi

maut da pahira sahi

phir wi aaKHar shahir hai,

ai mana, chal pher koi khaTkhaTa ke wekh dar !

na sahi koi umid

par koi hila tan kar
