barf andaz-e-shoala-fashan kab na tha
barf andāz-e-sho.ala-fashāñ kab na thā
fasl tā fasl thā āsmāñ kab na thā
kab na thā muztarib aur na mutma.in
mauj tā mauj āb-e-ravāñ kab na thā
kab na the da.avedārān-e-ḳhvāb-o-ḳhalish
ham pe lāzim koī imtihāñ kab na thā
kab muḳhālif na thī merī samt-e-safar
ye safīna havā pe garāñ kab na thā
sang-reze na chubhte the āñkhoñ meñ kab
shahr-e-nazzāra nā-mehrbāñ kab na thā
ik baḌe san.atī shahr meñ 'hāshmī'
barg-e-āvāra sā be-amāñ kab na thā
barf andaz-e-shoala-fashan kab na tha
fasl ta fasl tha aasman kab na tha
kab na tha muztarib aur na mutmain
mauj ta mauj aab-e-rawan kab na tha
kab na the dawedaran-e-KHwab-o-KHalish
hum pe lazim koi imtihan kab na tha
kab muKHalif na thi meri samt-e-safar
ye safina hawa pe garan kab na tha
sang-reze na chubhte the aankhon mein kab
shahr-e-nazzara na-mehrban kab na tha
ek baDe sanati shahr mein 'hashmi'
barg-e-awara sa be-aman kab na tha
