andhere DhunDne nikle khanDar kyun
añdhere DhūñDne nikle khañDar kyuuñ
ḳhudā jaane hue ye dar-ba-dar kyuuñ
ye bū ujḌe hue bāzār kī hai
mirī bastī huī nā-mo'tabar kyuuñ
samā'at munjamid sī ho rahī hai
magar sho'la-bayānī par asar kyuuñ
agar ehsās hī hairat-zada hai
to kāñdhe par liye phirte ho sar kyuuñ
ye bojhal shaam kā dhuñdlā tasavvur
mire ehsās par chhāyā magar kyuuñ
mizāj-e-shahr meñ tabdīliyāñ haiñ
mire tevar badalte dekh kar kyuuñ
jahāñ patthar tarāshe jā rahe hoñ
vahāñ ḳhema lagā.eñ shīshagar kyuuñ
ḳhalā se dekhnā hai 'rind' duniyā
to phir Thahrūñ purāne chāñd par kyuuñ
andhere DhunDne nikle khanDar kyun
KHuda jaane hue ye dar-ba-dar kyun
ye bu ujDe hue bazar ki hai
meri basti hui na-mo'tabar kyun
sama'at munjamid si ho rahi hai
magar sho'la-bayani par asar kyun
agar ehsas hi hairat-zada hai
to kandhe par liye phirte ho sar kyun
ye bojhal sham ka dhundla tasawwur
mere ehsas par chhaya magar kyun
mizaj-e-shahr mein tabdiliyan hain
mere tewar badalte dekh kar kyun
jahan patthar tarashe ja rahe hon
wahan KHema lagaen shishagar kyun
KHala se dekhna hai 'rind' duniya
to phir Thahrun purane chand par kyun
