ghaaliban waqt ki kami hai yahan
ġhāliban vaqt kī kamī hai yahāñ
varna har chiiz dīdanī hai yahāñ
saare raste idhar hī aate haiñ
ye jo ābād ik galī hai yahāñ
ye havā yuuñ hī ḳhaak chhāntī hai
yā koī chiiz kho ga.ī hai yahāñ
zindagī hī mirā asāsa hai
vo bhī taqsīm ho rahī hai yahāñ
kyuuñ añdherā nazar nahīñ aatā
kaun sī aisī raushnī hai yahāñ
maut kaasa uThā.e phirtī hai
aur tahī-dast zindagī hai yahāñ
mere andar kā shor hai mujh meñ
varna bāhar to ḳhāmushī hai yahāñ
shahr apnā dikhā.ī detā hai
vaise har shaḳhs ajnabī hai yahāñ
kaun sī shai hai dā.imī 'ġhā.er'
kaun sī baat āḳhirī hai yahāñ
ghaaliban waqt ki kami hai yahan
warna har chiz didani hai yahan
sare raste idhar hi aate hain
ye jo aabaad ek gali hai yahan
ye hawa yun hi KHak chhanti hai
ya koi chiz kho gai hai yahan
zindagi hi mera asasa hai
wo bhi taqsim ho rahi hai yahan
kyun andhera nazar nahin aata
kaun si aisi raushni hai yahan
maut kasa uThae phirti hai
aur tahi-dast zindagi hai yahan
mere andar ka shor hai mujh mein
warna bahar to KHamushi hai yahan
shahr apna dikhai deta hai
waise har shaKHs ajnabi hai yahan
kaun si shai hai daimi 'ghaer'
kaun si baat aaKHiri hai yahan
