naslen jo andhere ke mahazon pe laDi hain
nasleñ jo añdhere ke mahāzoñ pe laḌī haiñ
ab din ke kaTahre meñ ḳhatā-vār khaḌī haiñ
be-nām sī āvāz-e-shaguft aa.ī kahīñ se
kuchh patiyāñ shāyad shajar-e-shab se jhaḌī haiñ
nikleñ to shikastoñ ke añdhere ubal aa.eñ
rahne do jo kirneñ mirī āñkhoñ meñ gaḌī haiñ
aa Duub! ubharnā hai tujhe agle nagar meñ
manzil bhī bulātī hai salībeñ bhī khaḌī haiñ
jab paas kabhī jaa.eñ to paT bheḌ leñ khaT se
kyā laḌkiyāñ sapne ke darīchoñ meñ khaḌī haiñ
kyā raat ke āshob meñ vo ḳhud se laḌā thā
ā.īñe ke chehre pe ḳharāsheñ sī paḌī haiñ
ḳhāmoshiyāñ us sāhil-e-āvāz se aage
pātāl se gahrī haiñ, samundar se baḌī haiñ
naslen jo andhere ke mahazon pe laDi hain
ab din ke kaTahre mein KHata-war khaDi hain
be-nam si aawaz-e-shaguft aai kahin se
kuchh patiyan shayad shajar-e-shab se jhaDi hain
niklen to shikaston ke andhere ubal aaen
rahne do jo kirnen meri aankhon mein gaDi hain
aa Dub! ubharna hai tujhe agle nagar mein
manzil bhi bulati hai saliben bhi khaDi hain
jab pas kabhi jaen to paT bheD len khaT se
kya laDkiyan sapne ke darichon mein khaDi hain
kya raat ke aashob mein wo KHud se laDa tha
aaine ke chehre pe KHarashen si paDi hain
KHamoshiyan us sahil-e-awaz se aage
patal se gahri hain, samundar se baDi hain
