girya to aksar raha paiham raha
girya to aksar rahā paiham rahā
phir bhī dil ke bojh se kuchh kam rahā
qumqume jalte rahe bujhte rahe
rāt-bhar siine meñ ik aalam rahā
us vafā-dushman se chhuT jaane ke ba.ad
ḳhud ko pā lene kā kitnā ġham rahā
apnī hālat par hañsī bhī aa.ī thī
is hañsī kā bhī baḌā mātam rahā
itne rabt itnī shanāsā.ī ke ba.ad
kaun kis ke haal kā mahram rahā
pattharoñ se bhī nikal aayā jo tiir
vo mire pahlū meñ aa kar jam rahā
zehn ne kyā kuchh na koshish kī magar
dil kī gahrā.ī meñ ik aadam rahā
girya to aksar raha paiham raha
phir bhi dil ke bojh se kuchh kam raha
qumqume jalte rahe bujhte rahe
raat-bhar sine mein ek aalam raha
us wafa-dushman se chhuT jaane ke baad
KHud ko pa lene ka kitna gham raha
apni haalat par hansi bhi aai thi
is hansi ka bhi baDa matam raha
itne rabt itni shanasai ke baad
kaun kis ke haal ka mahram raha
pattharon se bhi nikal aaya jo tir
wo mere pahlu mein aa kar jam raha
zehn ne kya kuchh na koshish ki magar
dil ki gahrai mein ek aadam raha
