dariya wo kahan raha hai jo tha
dariyā vo kahāñ rahā hai jo thā
ye shahr kā āḳhirī qissa-go thā
jo ḳhaak sī dil meñ uḌ rahī hai
yaañ koī ġhazāl ho na ho thā
ab se ye hamārā ghar nahīñ ḳhair
pahle bhī na thā ḳhayāl to thā
sābit nahīñ kar sakoge tum log
kyā merā vajūd thā chalo thā
donoñ ghaḌiyoñ par hijr kā vaqt
honā nahīñ chāhiye thā so thā
is ḳhvāb meñ kyā nahīñ dar-asl
bas kah to diyā nā ḳhvāb jo thā
dariya wo kahan raha hai jo tha
ye shahr ka aaKHiri qissa-go tha
jo KHak si dil mein uD rahi hai
yan koi ghazal ho na ho tha
ab se ye hamara ghar nahin KHair
pahle bhi na tha KHayal to tha
sabit nahin kar sakoge tum log
kya mera wajud tha chalo tha
donon ghaDiyon par hijr ka waqt
hona nahin chahiye tha so tha
is KHwab mein kya nahin dar-asl
bas kah to diya na KHwab jo tha
