| gunāh:
| 
| gunāh ke tund-o-tez shǒʿloñ se rūḥ merī bhaṛak rahī thī
| havas kī sunsān vādiyoñ meñ mirī javānī bhaṭak rahī thī
| mirī javānī ke din guzarte the vaḥshat-ālūd ʿishratoñ meñ
| mirī javānī ke mai-kadoñ meñ gunāh kī mai chhalak rahī thī
| mire ḥarīm-e gunāh meñ ʿishq devatā kā guzar nahīñ thā
| mire fareb-e vafā ke ṣaḥrā meñ ḥūr-e ʿiṣmat bhaṭak rahī thī
| mujhe ḳhas-e nā-tavāñ ke mānind żauq-e ʿiṣyāñ bahā rahā thā
| gunāh kī mauj-e fitnah sāmāñ uṭhā uṭhā-kar paṭak rahī thī
| shabāb ke avvalīñ dinoñ meñ tabāh-o-afsurdah ho chuke the
| mire gulistāñ ke phūl, jin se faẓā-e t̤iflī mahak rahī thī
| ġharaẓ javānī meñ ahriman ke t̤arab kā sāmān ban gayā maiñ
| gunah kī ālāʾishoñ meñ luthṛā huʾā ik insān ban gayā maiñ
| 
| muḥabbat:
| 
| aur ab kih terī muḥabbat-e sar-madī kā bādah-gusār hūñ maiñ
| havas-parastī kī lażżat-e be-ṡabāt se sharm-sār hūñ maiñ
| mirī bahīmānah ḳhvāhishoñ ne farār kī rāh lī hai dil se
| aur un ke badle ik ārzū-e salīm se ham-kinār hūñ maiñ
| dalīl-e rāh-e vafā banī haiñ ẓiyā-e ulfat kī pāk kirneñ
| phir apne "firdaus-e gum-shudah" kī talāsh meñ rah sipār hūñ maiñ
| huʾā hūñ be-dār kāñp-kar ik muhīb ḳhvāboñ ke silsile se
| aur ab namūd-e saḥar kī ḳhāt̤ir sitam-kash-e intiz̤ār hūñ maiñ
| bahār-e taqdīs-e jāvidāñ kī mujhe phir ik bār ārzū hai
| phir ek pākīzah zindagī ke liye bahut be-qarār hūñ maiñ
| mujhe muḥabbat ne maʿṣiyat ke jahannamoñ se bachā liyā hai
| mujhe javānī kī tīrah-o-tār pastiyoñ se uṭhā liyā hai

.. admonition:: I Too Have Some Dreams: N. M. Rashed and Modernism in Urdu Poetry

  A translation of this Urdu poem by N. M. Rashed as well as this transliteration appears in the
  appendix of *I Too Have Some Dreams*. The transliteration is intended for
  people who can understand Urdu/Hindi or related languages. I hope to soon 
  add performances of these poems as well.
