main ret ka mahal hun mere pasban daraKHt
maiñ ret kā mahal huuñ mire pāsbāñ daraḳht
siine pe rok lete haiñ sab āñdhiyāñ daraḳht
dekhe ga.e the jis ke tale do javāñ badan
logoñ ne TukḌe TukḌe kiyā vo javāñ daraḳht
DhūñDeñge ab parind kahāñ shaam ko panāh
jañgal kī aag khā ga.ī sab Dāliyāñ daraḳht
phaldār thā to gaañv use pūjtā rahā
sūkhā to qatl ho gayā vo be-zabāñ daraḳht
sūraj thā dukh kā sar pe ki thiiñ ġham kī bārisheñ
dasht-e-safar meñ mere bane sā.ebāñ daraḳht
kaisī havā chalī hai ki phir chīḳh chīḳh kar
sab ko sunā ga.e haiñ mirī dāstāñ daraḳht
sau baar mere jism ko chhū kar ga.ī bahār
phir bhī huuñ 'ashk' sūkhā huā nīm-jāñ daraḳht
main ret ka mahal hun mere pasban daraKHt
sine pe rok lete hain sab aandhiyan daraKHt
dekhe gae the jis ke tale do jawan badan
logon ne TukDe TukDe kiya wo jawan daraKHt
DhunDenge ab parind kahan sham ko panah
jangal ki aag kha gai sab Daliyan daraKHt
phaldar tha to ganw use pujta raha
sukha to qatl ho gaya wo be-zaban daraKHt
suraj tha dukh ka sar pe ki thin gham ki barishen
dasht-e-safar mein mere bane saeban daraKHt
kaisi hawa chali hai ki phir chiKH chiKH kar
sab ko suna gae hain meri dastan daraKHt
sau bar mere jism ko chhu kar gai bahaar
phir bhi hun 'ashk' sukha hua nim-jaan daraKHt
