hawa kuchh apne sawal tahrir dekhti hai
havā kuchh apne savāl tahrīr dekhtī hai
ki bādaloñ ko bhī misl-e-zanjīr dekhtī hai
mujhe bulātā hai phir vahī shahr-e-nā-murādī
ki aarzū ābloñ meñ tasvīr dekhtī hai
jo kashtiyoñ meñ na baiTh paa.e vo ghar na pahuñche
safar kī tā.īd shām-e-taqsīr dekhtī hai
bahut dinoñ meñ sitam ke dariyā kā zor TuuTā
sarisht-e-shab bhī barahna ta.azīr dekhtī hai
samundaroñ kā uruuj phir ret ban gayā hai
shahāb-e-sāqib meñ raat tafsīr dekhtī hai
havā chalī thī pa shahr-e-jāñ ke the dar muqaffal
ye aañkh apne hī ḳhvāb tāḳhīr dekhtī hai
subū liye tishnagī khaḌī thī ye jāntī thī
ki jāñ-faroshoñ ko qaus-e-shamshīr dekhtī hai
niyābat-e-shahr un ke hāthoñ meñ ab na hogī
kamān-dāroñ ko shab kī zanjīr dekhtī hai
hawa kuchh apne sawal tahrir dekhti hai
ki baadalon ko bhi misl-e-zanjir dekhti hai
mujhe bulata hai phir wahi shahr-e-na-muradi
ki aarzu aablon mein taswir dekhti hai
jo kashtiyon mein na baiTh pae wo ghar na pahunche
safar ki taid sham-e-taqsir dekhti hai
bahut dinon mein sitam ke dariya ka zor TuTa
sarisht-e-shab bhi barahna tazir dekhti hai
samundaron ka uruj phir ret ban gaya hai
shahab-e-saqib mein raat tafsir dekhti hai
hawa chali thi pa shahr-e-jaan ke the dar muqaffal
ye aankh apne hi KHwab taKHir dekhti hai
subu liye tishnagi khaDi thi ye jaanti thi
ki jaan-faroshon ko qaus-e-shamshir dekhti hai
niyabat-e-shahr un ke hathon mein ab na hogi
kaman-daron ko shab ki zanjir dekhti hai
