    baiThā thā tan ko Dhāñk ke jo garm shaal se

    mushkil meñ paḌ gayā vo sitāroñ chaal se

    ḳhāmoshiyoñ raah pe ho kar ke gāmzan

    rakhnā kabhī na soch rishta malāl se

    ummīd aisī un se matānat thī nahīñ

    bachche bigaḌ ga.e haiñ bahut dekh bhaal se

    dam-ḳham to kuchh nahīñ thā haqīqat ke naam par

    ghabrā gayā jahān hamārī majāl se

    kuchh maslahat ke naam pe chup chaap ham rahe

    vāqif the varna vaqt ke poshīda haal se

    chādar pe āsmān bikhrī thī chāñdnī

    ārāsta zamīn thī is ke jamāl se

    tum shahr rahe ho to jaao magar vahāñ

    armāñ mileñge dekhnā behad niDhāl se

    afsurda fikr thī jo qadāmat ke ḳhol meñ

    shādāb ho ga.ī hai vo raushan ḳhayāl se

    ik patte bisāt tumhārī hai 'sāhnī'

    miTTī meñ miloge judā ho ke Daal se

    baiTha tha tan ko Dhank ke jo garm shaal se

    mushkil mein paD gaya wo sitaron ki chaal se

    KHamoshiyon ki rah pe ho kar ke gamzan

    rakhna kabhi na soch ka rishta malal se

    ummid aisi un se matanat ki thi nahin

    bachche bigaD gae hain bahut dekh bhaal se

    dam-KHam to kuchh nahin tha haqiqat ke nam par

    ghabra gaya jahan hamari majal se

    kuchh maslahat ke nam pe chup chap hum rahe

    waqif the warna waqt ke poshida haal se

    chadar pe aasman ki bikhri thi chandni

    aarasta zamin thi is ke jamal se

    tum shahr ja rahe ho to jao magar wahan

    arman milenge dekhna behad niDhaal se

    afsurda fikr thi jo qadamat ke KHol mein

    shadab ho gai hai wo raushan KHayal se

    ek patte ki bisat tumhaari hai 'sahni'

    miTTi mein ja miloge juda ho ke Dal se
