kuchh der to sab kuchh TuTne ka mahaul raha
kuchh der to sab kuchh TūTne kā māhaul rahā
mat pūchh ki phir is dil par kaisā haul rahā
jab chāhā us meñ ḳhud ko chhupā lete haiñ sab
āvāzoñ kā har zaat pe koī ḳhol rahā
yuuñ lagtā thā jo baat hai ulTī paḌtī hai
ab kyā hī kaheñ tab haul sā koī haul rahā
ab kaun kahāñ aayā ki gayā mālūm nahīñ
bas qadmoñ kī aahaT kā ik māhaul rahā
kah bhī na sakā maiñ us meñ shāmil thā ki nahīñ
bas ek chhalāve sā mastoñ kā ġhol rahā
āvāz-e-faqīrāna kashkol ummīdoñ kā
ab ye to rahī āvāz vahāñ kashkol rahā
ham 'talḳh' faqat us daur kī ab kuchh yādeñ haiñ
jab dard bhī thā kahne kā bhī māhaul rahā
kuchh der to sab kuchh TuTne ka mahaul raha
mat puchh ki phir is dil par kaisa haul raha
jab chaha us mein KHud ko chhupa lete hain sab
aawazon ka har zat pe koi KHol raha
yun lagta tha jo baat hai ulTi paDti hai
ab kya hi kahen tab haul sa koi haul raha
ab kaun kahan aaya ki gaya malum nahin
bas qadmon ki aahaT ka ek mahaul raha
kah bhi na saka main us mein shamil tha ki nahin
bas ek chhalawe sa maston ka ghol raha
aawaz-e-faqirana kashkol ummidon ka
ab ye to rahi aawaz wahan kashkol raha
hum 'talKH' faqat us daur ki ab kuchh yaaden hain
jab dard bhi tha kahne ka bhi mahaul raha
