baat karne ka nahin samne aane ka nahin
baat karne kā nahīñ sāmne aane kā nahīñ
vo mujhe merī aziyyat se bachāne kā nahīñ
duur ik shahr hai jo paas bulātā hai mujhe
varna ye shahr kahīñ chhoḌ ke jaane kā nahīñ
kyā yūñhī raat ke pahlū meñ kaTegī ye hayāt
kyā koī shahr ke logoñ ko jagāne kā nahīñ
ajnabī log haiñ maiñ jin meñ ghirā rahtā huuñ
āshnā koī yahāñ mere fasāne kā nahīñ
ye jo ik shahr hai ye jis pe tasarruf hai mirā
maiñ yahāñ koī bhī dīvār banāne kā nahīñ
baad muddat ke jo aayā thā vahī lauT gayā
ab yahāñ koī charāġhoñ ko jalāne kā nahīñ
aane vaalī hai na.ī sub.h zarā der ke baad
kyā koī rāh-e-tamannā ko sajāne kā nahīñ
baat karne ka nahin samne aane ka nahin
wo mujhe meri aziyyat se bachane ka nahin
dur ek shahr hai jo pas bulata hai mujhe
warna ye shahr kahin chhoD ke jaane ka nahin
kya yunhi raat ke pahlu mein kaTegi ye hayat
kya koi shahr ke logon ko jagane ka nahin
ajnabi log hain main jin mein ghira rahta hun
aashna koi yahan mere fasane ka nahin
ye jo ek shahr hai ye jis pe tasarruf hai mera
main yahan koi bhi diwar banane ka nahin
baad muddat ke jo aaya tha wahi lauT gaya
ab yahan koi charaghon ko jalane ka nahin
aane wali hai nai subh zara der ke baad
kya koi rah-e-tamanna ko sajaane ka nahin
