har ek ka dard usi aashufta-sar mein tanha tha
har ik kā dard usī āshufta-sar meñ tanhā thā
vo ek shaḳhs jo saare nagar meñ tanhā thā
vo aadmī bhī jise jān-e-anjuman kahiye
chalā jab uTh ke to saare safar meñ tanhā thā
jo tiir aayā gale mil ke dil se lauT gayā
vo apne fan meñ maiñ apne hunar meñ tanhā thā
us ik diye se hue kis qadar diye raushan
vo ik diyā jo kabhī bām-o-dar meñ tanhā thā
sunā hai luT gayā kal raat rāste meñ kahīñ
jo ek rah-guzrī rahguzar meñ tanhā thā
uThā ye shor vahīñ se sadāoñ kā kyūñ-kar
vo aadmī to sunā apne ghar meñ tanhā thā
har ik meñ koī kamī thī har ik meñ thā koī aib
dhulā huā vahī bas āb-e-zar meñ tanhā thā
na pā sakā kabhī tā-umr lutf-e-tanhā.ī
umar jo saare jahāñ kī nazar meñ tanhā thā
har ek ka dard usi aashufta-sar mein tanha tha
wo ek shaKHs jo sare nagar mein tanha tha
wo aadmi bhi jise jaan-e-anjuman kahiye
chala jab uTh ke to sare safar mein tanha tha
jo tir aaya gale mil ke dil se lauT gaya
wo apne fan mein main apne hunar mein tanha tha
us ek diye se hue kis qadar diye raushan
wo ek diya jo kabhi baam-o-dar mein tanha tha
suna hai luT gaya kal raat raste mein kahin
jo ek rah-guzri rahguzar mein tanha tha
uTha ye shor wahin se sadaon ka kyun-kar
wo aadmi to suna apne ghar mein tanha tha
har ek mein koi kami thi har ek mein tha koi aib
dhula hua wahi bas aab-e-zar mein tanha tha
na pa saka kabhi ta-umr lutf-e-tanhai
umar jo sare jahan ki nazar mein tanha tha
