is par ka ho ke bhi mein us par gaya hun
is paar kā ho ke bhī meñ us paar gayā huuñ
ik ism kī barakat se ka.ī baar gayā huuñ
ḳhairāt meñ de aayā huuñ jiitī huī baazī
duniyā ye samajhtī hai ki maiñ haar gayā huuñ
thāme hue ik raushnī ke haath ko har shab
paanī pe qadam rakh ke maiñ us paar gayā huuñ
darvāze ko auqāt meñ laane ke liye maiñ
dīvār ke andar se ka.ī baar gayā huuñ
kyā mere liye ek bhī kirdār nahīñ thā
kyuuñ apnī kahānī se maiñ be-kār gayā huuñ
mushkil hai tujhe aag ke dariyā se bachā luuñ
ai shahr-e-peshawar maiñ tujhe haar gayā huuñ
ḳhvāboñ ne jo ik khel banāyā thā mire dost
is khel meñ ta.abīr se maiñ haar gayā huuñ
is par ka ho ke bhi mein us par gaya hun
ek ism ki barakat se kai bar gaya hun
KHairaat mein de aaya hun jiti hui bazi
duniya ye samajhti hai ki main haar gaya hun
thame hue ek raushni ke hath ko har shab
pani pe qadam rakh ke main us par gaya hun
darwaze ko auqat mein lane ke liye main
diwar ke andar se kai bar gaya hun
kya mere liye ek bhi kirdar nahin tha
kyun apni kahani se main be-kar gaya hun
mushkil hai tujhe aag ke dariya se bacha lun
ai shahr-e-peshawar main tujhe haar gaya hun
KHwabon ne jo ek khel banaya tha mere dost
is khel mein tabir se main haar gaya hun
