ghaTti baDhti raushniyon ne mujhe samjha nahin
ghaTtī baḌhtī raushnīyoñ ne mujhe samjhā nahīñ
maiñ kisī patthar kisī dīvār kā saayā nahīñ
jaane kin rishtoñ ne mujh ko bāñdh rakkhā hai ki maiñ
muddatoñ se āñdhiyoñ kī zad meñ huuñ bikhrā nahīñ
zindagī biphre hue dariyā kī koī mauj hai
ik dafa dekhā jo manzar phir kabhī dekhā nahīñ
har taraf bikhrī huī haiñ aa.ine kī kirchiyāñ
reza reza aks haiñ sālim koī chehrā nahīñ
kahte kahte kuchh badal detā hai kyuuñ bātoñ kā ruḳh
kyuuñ ḳhud apne-āp ke bhī saath vo sachchā nahīñ
ghaTti baDhti raushniyon ne mujhe samjha nahin
main kisi patthar kisi diwar ka saya nahin
jaane kin rishton ne mujh ko bandh rakkha hai ki main
muddaton se aandhiyon ki zad mein hun bikhra nahin
zindagi biphre hue dariya ki koi mauj hai
ek dafa dekha jo manzar phir kabhi dekha nahin
har taraf bikhri hui hain aaine ki kirchiyan
reza reza aks hain salim koi chehra nahin
kahte kahte kuchh badal deta hai kyun baaton ka ruKH
kyun KHud apne-ap ke bhi sath wo sachcha nahin
