bahar bhi ab andar jaisa sannaTa hai
bāhar bhī ab andar jaisā sannāTā hai
dariyā ke us paar bhī gahrā sannāTā hai
shor thame to shāyad sadiyāñ biit chukī haiñ
ab tak lekin sahmā sahmā sannāTā hai
kis se bolūñ ye to ik sahrā hai jahāñ par
maiñ huuñ yā phir gūñgā bahrā sannāTā hai
jaise ik tūfān se pahle kī ḳhāmoshī
aaj mirī bastī meñ aisā sannāTā hai
na.ī sahar kī chaap na jaane kab ubhregī
chāroñ jānib raat kā gahrā sannāTā hai
soch rahe ho socho lekin bol na paḌnā
dekh rahe ho shahr meñ kitnā sannāTā hai
mahv-e-ḳhvāb haiñ saarī dekhne vaalī āñkheñ
jāgne vaalā bas ik andhā sannāTā hai
Darnā hai to an-jānī āvāz se Darnā
ye to 'ānis' dekhā-bhālā sannāTā hai
bahar bhi ab andar jaisa sannaTa hai
dariya ke us par bhi gahra sannaTa hai
shor thame to shayad sadiyan bit chuki hain
ab tak lekin sahma sahma sannaTa hai
kis se bolun ye to ek sahra hai jahan par
main hun ya phir gunga bahra sannaTa hai
jaise ek tufan se pahle ki KHamoshi
aaj meri basti mein aisa sannaTa hai
nai sahar ki chap na jaane kab ubhregi
chaaron jaanib raat ka gahra sannaTa hai
soch rahe ho socho lekin bol na paDna
dekh rahe ho shahr mein kitna sannaTa hai
mahw-e-KHwab hain sari dekhne wali aankhen
jagne wala bas ek andha sannaTa hai
Darna hai to an-jaani aawaz se Darna
ye to 'anis' dekha-bhaala sannaTa hai
