hain meri parwaz ke tewar nae

haiñ mirī parvāz ke tevar na.e

saath mere dekhiye manzar na.e

ik purāne mai-kade meñ tishnagī

DhūñDtī hai sāqī-o-sāġhar na.e

bachpane kā ghar na bhūlegā kabhī

chāhe jitne aap ke hoñ ghar na.e

kījiye har ilm se ārāsta

bachchiyoñ ke haiñ yahī zevar na.e

ik na.e fōtpath par mazdūr thā

muflisī ne jab diye bistar na.e

ab zarā ta.abīr bhī badle 'faroġh'

dekhtā huuñ ḳhvāb to aksar na.e

hain meri parwaz ke tewar nae

sath mere dekhiye manzar nae

ek purane mai-kade mein tishnagi

DhunDti hai saqi-o-saghar nae

bachpane ka ghar na bhulega kabhi

chahe jitne aap ke hon ghar nae

kijiye har ilm se aarasta

bachchiyon ke hain yahi zewar nae

ek nae footpath par mazdur tha

muflisi ne jab diye bistar nae

ab zara tabir bhi badle 'farogh'

dekhta hun KHwab to aksar nae
