Duba hun to kis shaKHs ka chehra nahin utra
Duubā huuñ to kis shaḳhs kā chehra nahīñ utrā
maiñ dard ke qulzum meñ bhī tanhā nahīñ utrā
zanjīr-e-nafas likhtī rahī dard kī āyāt
ik pal ko magar sukh kā sahīfa nahīñ utrā
insān muallaq haiñ ḳhalāoñ ke bhañvar meñ
ashjār se lagtā hai ki dariyā nahīñ utrā
sunte haiñ ki is peḌ se ThanDak hī milegī
shāḳhoñ ke darīchoñ se to jhoñkā nahīñ utrā
pathrā.ī huī āñkhoñ pe hairāñ na ho itnā
is shahr meñ koī bhī to zinda nahīñ utrā
sahrā-e-badan ko thī talab saa.e kī lekin
ik shaḳhs bhī me.aar pe puurā nahīñ utrā
sūraj kī talab meñ ka.ī nazrāne diye haiñ
ghar ke dar-o-dīvār se saaya nahīñ utrā
Duba hun to kis shaKHs ka chehra nahin utra
main dard ke qulzum mein bhi tanha nahin utra
zanjir-e-nafas likhti rahi dard ki aayat
ek pal ko magar sukh ka sahifa nahin utra
insan muallaq hain KHalaon ke bhanwar mein
ashjar se lagta hai ki dariya nahin utra
sunte hain ki is peD se ThanDak hi milegi
shaKHon ke darichon se to jhonka nahin utra
pathrai hui aankhon pe hairan na ho itna
is shahr mein koi bhi to zinda nahin utra
sahra-e-badan ko thi talab sae ki lekin
ek shaKHs bhi mear pe pura nahin utra
suraj ki talab mein kai nazrane diye hain
ghar ke dar-o-diwar se saya nahin utra
