chhoDiye baqi bhi kya rakkha hai un ke qahr mein
chhoḌiye baaqī bhī kyā rakkhā hai un ke qahr meñ
jaan durveshoñ ko pyārī hai hamāre shahr meñ
dekhiye kyā hashr hotā hai hamārā dahr meñ
shahryārī kī tamannā aur tere shahr meñ
dekhne vaale ko saarā hī samundar chāhiye
sochne vaalā samundar soch le ik lahr meñ
dekhiye tāsīr ḳhālī zahr meñ hotī nahīñ
zindagī sūkhī milā kar khā.igā zahr meñ
un se yuuñ tashbīh detā huuñ ki vo bhī duur haiñ
varna kyā miltā hai tujh meñ aur maah o mahr meñ
tañgī-e-hai.at se Takrātā huā josh-e-mavād
shā.erī kā lutf aa jaatā hai chhoTī bahr meñ
chhoDiye baqi bhi kya rakkha hai un ke qahr mein
jaan durweshon ko pyari hai hamare shahr mein
dekhiye kya hashr hota hai hamara dahr mein
shahryari ki tamanna aur tere shahr mein
dekhne wale ko sara hi samundar chahiye
sochne wala samundar soch le ek lahr mein
dekhiye tasir KHali zahr mein hoti nahin
zindagi sukhi mila kar khaiga zahr mein
un se yun tashbih deta hun ki wo bhi dur hain
warna kya milta hai tujh mein aur mah o mahr mein
tangi-e-haiat se Takraata hua josh-e-mawad
shaeri ka lutf aa jata hai chhoTi bahr mein
