diwar ki surat tha kabhi dar ki tarah tha
dīvār kī sūrat thā kabhī dar kī tarah thā
vo dhund meñ lipTe hue manzar kī tarah thā
dekhā to shagufta sā lagā phuul kī sūrat
utrā to mirī ruuh meñ ḳhanjar kī tarah thā
maiñ aaj tahī-dast huuñ ik ḳhaas sabab se
varna maiñ zamāne meñ sikandar kī tarah thā
kuchh vaqt ne tartīb bigāḌī mire ghar kī
kuchh ghar bhī mirā mere muqaddar kī tarah thā
vo jāgte lamhoñ meñ bhī patthar kī tarah thī
maiñ niiñd ke aalam meñ bhī aazar kī tarah thā
diwar ki surat tha kabhi dar ki tarah tha
wo dhund mein lipTe hue manzar ki tarah tha
dekha to shagufta sa laga phul ki surat
utra to meri ruh mein KHanjar ki tarah tha
main aaj tahi-dast hun ek KHas sabab se
warna main zamane mein sikandar ki tarah tha
kuchh waqt ne tartib bigaDi mere ghar ki
kuchh ghar bhi mera mere muqaddar ki tarah tha
wo jagte lamhon mein bhi patthar ki tarah thi
main nind ke aalam mein bhi aazar ki tarah tha
