khiDkiyan kholin to mujhko aaj andaza hua
khiḌkiyāñ kholīñ to mujh ko aaj andāza huā
merā hī saaya thā vo dīvār se lipTā huā
aaj kī shab bhī palaT aa.e binā dastak diye
so rahā thā ghar meñ koī raat kā jaagā huā
is galī ke moḌ pe baiThā huuñ kitnī der se
jis tarah koī musāfir huuñ thakā-hārā huā
jis taraf bhī ab uḌā le jaa.eñ mujh ko āñdhiyāñ
ek patta huuñ havā ke dosh pe rakkhā huā
aur bhī kuchh duur aa pahuñche ham apne shahr se
lag rahā thā rāsta jaanā huā būjhā huā
so gayā hai mere siine se lagā kar apnā sar
ik khilaune ke liye bachcha koī rotā huā
be-ta.alluq sā paḌā thā mausamoñ ke sāmne
sabz patta koī apnī shāḳh se TuuTā huā
dhuñd meñ lipTī huī thiiñ apnī tahrīreñ sabhī
paḌh nahīñ paa.e 'zafar' ham haath kā likkhā huā
khiDkiyan kholin to mujh ko aaj andaza hua
mera hi saya tha wo diwar se lipTa hua
aaj ki shab bhi palaT aae bina dastak diye
so raha tha ghar mein koi raat ka jaga hua
is gali ke moD pe baiTha hun kitni der se
jis tarah koi musafir hun thaka-haara hua
jis taraf bhi ab uDa le jaen mujh ko aandhiyan
ek patta hun hawa ke dosh pe rakkha hua
aur bhi kuchh dur aa pahunche hum apne shahr se
lag raha tha rasta jaana hua bujha hua
so gaya hai mere sine se laga kar apna sar
ek khilaune ke liye bachcha koi rota hua
be-talluq sa paDa tha mausamon ke samne
sabz patta koi apni shaKH se TuTa hua
dhund mein lipTi hui thin apni tahriren sabhi
paDh nahin pae 'zafar' hum hath ka likkha hua
