pura dukh aur aadha chand

puurā dukh aur aadhā chāñd

hijr kī shab aur aisā chāñd

din meñ vahshat bahal ga.ī

raat huī aur niklā chāñd

kis maqtal se guzrā hogā

itnā sahmā sahmā chāñd

yādoñ kī ābād galī meñ

ghuum rahā hai tanhā chāñd

merī karvaT par jaag uTThe

niiñd kā kitnā kachchā chāñd

mere muñh ko kis hairat se

dekh rahā hai bholā chāñd

itne ghane bādal ke pīchhe

kitnā tanhā hogā chāñd

aañsū roke nuur nahā.e

dil dariyā tan sahrā chāñd

itne raushan chehre par bhī

sūraj kā hai saayā chāñd

jab paanī meñ chehra dekhā

tū ne kis ko sochā chāñd

bargad kī ik shāḳh haTā kar

jaane kis ko jhāñkā chāñd

bādal ke resham jhūle meñ

bhor samay tak soyā chāñd

raat ke shāne par sar rakkhe

dekh rahā hai sapnā chāñd

sūkhe pattoñ ke jhurmuT par

shabnam thī yā nanhā chāñd

haath hilā kar ruḳhsat hogā

us kī sūrat hijr kā chāñd

sahrā sahrā bhaTak rahā hai

apne 'ishq meñ sachchā chāñd

raat ke shāyad ek baje haiñ

sotā hogā merā chāñd

pura dukh aur aadha chand

hijr ki shab aur aisa chand

din mein wahshat bahal gai

raat hui aur nikla chand

kis maqtal se guzra hoga

itna sahma sahma chand

yaadon ki aabaad gali mein

ghum raha hai tanha chand

meri karwaT par jag uTThe

nind ka kitna kachcha chand

mere munh ko kis hairat se

dekh raha hai bhola chand

itne ghane baadal ke pichhe

kitna tanha hoga chand

aansu roke nur nahae

dil dariya tan sahra chand

itne raushan chehre par bhi

suraj ka hai saya chand

jab pani mein chehra dekha

tu ne kis ko socha chand

bargad ki ek shaKH haTa kar

jaane kis ko jhanka chand

baadal ke resham jhule mein

bhor samay tak soya chand

raat ke shane par sar rakkhe

dekh raha hai sapna chand

sukhe patton ke jhurmuT par

shabnam thi ya nanha chand

hath hila kar ruKHsat hoga

us ki surat hijr ka chand

sahra sahra bhaTak raha hai

apne 'ishq mein sachcha chand

raat ke shayad ek baje hain

sota hoga mera chand
