baadalon ke beach tha main be-sar-o-saman na tha
bādaloñ ke beach thā maiñ be-sar-o-sāmāñ na thā
tishnagī kā zahr pī lenā koī āsāñ na thā
kyā qayāmat-ḳhez thā dariyā meñ maujoñ kā hujūm
sāhiloñ tak aate aate phir kahīñ tūfāñ na thā
jaane kitnī duur us kī lahar mujh ko le ga.ī
maiñ samajhtā thā ki vo dariyā-e-be-pāyāñ na thā
har taraf patjhaḌ kī āvāzoñ kī chādar tan ga.ī
dasht meñ merī sadā kā jism bhī uryāñ na thā
is ke rañg-o-saut ke jugnū the dāman meñ 'alīm'
kho ke sab kuchh aane vaalā bhī tahī-dāmāñ na thā
baadalon ke beach tha main be-sar-o-saman na tha
tishnagi ka zahr pi lena koi aasan na tha
kya qayamat-KHez tha dariya mein maujon ka hujum
sahilon tak aate aate phir kahin tufan na tha
jaane kitni dur us ki lahar mujh ko le gai
main samajhta tha ki wo dariya-e-be-payan na tha
har taraf patjhaD ki aawazon ki chadar tan gai
dasht mein meri sada ka jism bhi uryan na tha
is ke rang-o-saut ke jugnu the daman mein 'alim'
kho ke sab kuchh aane wala bhi tahi-daman na tha
