hijr bana aazar safar kaise kaTta
hijr banā āzār safar kaise kaTtā
ishq ke rog hazār safar kaise kaTtā
dhuup kā bojh saroñ par āḳhir aan girā
ḳhatm hue ashjār safar kaise kaTtā
kyā batlā.eñ apnī ḳhālī jholī meñ
sāñseñ thiiñ do-chār safar kaise kaTtā
dekhte dekhte nazroñ se ma.adūm hue
rastoñ ke āsār safar kaise kaTtā
pīchhe behis din ke ḳhauf thā aur aage
raat kī thī dīvār safar kaise kaTtā
apnā bojh uThā kar apne kāñdhoñ par
chalnā thā dushvār safar kaise kaTtā
āñkheñ thiiñ vīrān nazar kaise aatā
dil to thā bīmār safar kaise kaTtā
nañge paañv dhuup meñ chalte rahne kī
koshish thī bekār safar kaise kaTtā
kuchh to jazīre bīnā.ī se ojhal the
naav thī be-patvār safar kaise kaTtā
ik duuje ke sañg aḌī thiiñ sab kūñjeñ
TuuT ga.ī phir Daar safar kaise kaTtā
hijr bana aazar safar kaise kaTta
ishq ke rog hazar safar kaise kaTta
dhup ka bojh saron par aaKHir aan gira
KHatm hue ashjar safar kaise kaTta
kya batlaen apni KHali jholi mein
sansen thin do-chaar safar kaise kaTta
dekhte dekhte nazron se madum hue
raston ke aasar safar kaise kaTta
pichhe behis din ke KHauf tha aur aage
raat ki thi diwar safar kaise kaTta
apna bojh uTha kar apne kandhon par
chalna tha dushwar safar kaise kaTta
aankhen thin viran nazar kaise aata
dil to tha bimar safar kaise kaTta
nange panw dhup mein chalte rahne ki
koshish thi bekar safar kaise kaTta
kuchh to jazire binai se ojhal the
naw thi be-patwar safar kaise kaTta
ek duje ke sang aDi thin sab kunjen
TuT gai phir Dar safar kaise kaTta
