baiTha hai sogwar sitamgar ke shahr mein
baiThā hai sogvār sitamgar ke shahr meñ
kis ko pukāre ā.īna patthar ke shahr meñ
bejā nahīñ fazāoñ kā hairat meñ Dūbnā
itnā sukūt aur suḳhan-var ke shahr meñ
is daur meñ usī ko hunar-mand māniye
jiinā nahīñ paḌā jise mar mar ke shahr meñ
manzil qarīb aa.ī to rasta bhulā gayā
phirte haiñ ḳhaak chhānte rahbar ke shahr meñ
sūraj nazar bachā ke to guzrā na thā magar
utrīñ nahīñ shuā.eñ muqaddar ke shahr meñ
insāñ kahūñ unheñ ki farishtoñ kā naam duuñ
jo log dard-mand haiñ be-ghar ke shahr meñ
shāyad nikal hī aa.e koī chāragar 'figār'
ik baar aur dekh sadā kar ke shahr meñ
baiTha hai sogwar sitamgar ke shahr mein
kis ko pukare aaina patthar ke shahr mein
beja nahin fazaon ka hairat mein Dubna
itna sukut aur suKHan-war ke shahr mein
is daur mein usi ko hunar-mand maniye
jina nahin paDa jise mar mar ke shahr mein
manzil qarib aai to rasta bhula gaya
phirte hain KHak chhante rahbar ke shahr mein
suraj nazar bacha ke to guzra na tha magar
utrin nahin shuaen muqaddar ke shahr mein
insan kahun unhen ki farishton ka nam dun
jo log dard-mand hain be-ghar ke shahr mein
shayad nikal hi aae koi chaaragar 'figar'
ek bar aur dekh sada kar ke shahr mein
