ek akelaa is shahar me.n, raat me.n aur dopahar me.n
aab-o-daanaa Dhuu.NDhataa hai, aashiyaanaa Dhuu.NDhataa hai

din khaalii khaalii bartan hai, aur raat hai jaise a.ndhaa ku.Nvaa
in suunii andherii aa.Nkho.n me.n, aa.NsU kii jagah aataa hai.n dhu.N_aa
jiine kii vajah to ko_ii nahii.n, marane kaa bahaanaa Dhuu.NDhataa hai
ek akelaa is shehar me.n

in umr se lambii sa.Dako.n ko, manzil pe pahu.Nchate dekhaa nahii.n
bas dau.Datii phiratii rahatii hai.n, ham ne to Thaharate dekhaa nahii.n
is ajanabii se shehar me.n, jaanaa pahachaanaa Dhuu.NDhataa hai
ek akelaa is shehar me.n
