aisa tah-e-aflak KHaraba nahin koi
aisā tah-e-aflāk ḳharāba nahīñ koī
us dasht se zinda kabhī lauTā nahīñ koī
haibat vo sadāoñ meñ ki larze dar-o-dīvār
guzre vo shab-o-roz ki soyā nahīñ koī
vīrān sī vīrān huī dhyān kī bastī
chehra kisī chilman se jhalaktā nahīñ koī
sar phoḌ ke lauT aatī hai jaatī hai jo āvāz
kyā gumbad-e-āfāq meñ rasta nahīñ koī
ik aisī masāfat hai ki saa.at bhī kaThin hai
sadiyoñ kā safar aur kahīñ saaya nahīñ koī
be-ism nahīñ khultā dar-e-ganj-e-tilismāt
satroñ meñ ḳhazīne haiñ tamāshā nahīñ koī
dekhī hai 'bashīr' ahl-e-nazar kī bhī rasā.ī
bāteñ mirī samjhe mujhe samjhā nahīñ koī
aisa tah-e-aflak KHaraba nahin koi
us dasht se zinda kabhi lauTa nahin koi
haibat wo sadaon mein ki larze dar-o-diwar
guzre wo shab-o-roz ki soya nahin koi
viran si viran hui dhyan ki basti
chehra kisi chilman se jhalakta nahin koi
sar phoD ke lauT aati hai jati hai jo aawaz
kya gumbad-e-afaq mein rasta nahin koi
ek aisi masafat hai ki saat bhi kaThin hai
sadiyon ka safar aur kahin saya nahin koi
be-ism nahin khulta dar-e-ganj-e-tilismat
satron mein KHazine hain tamasha nahin koi
dekhi hai 'bashir' ahl-e-nazar ki bhi rasai
baaten meri samjhe mujhe samjha nahin koi
