    kyuuñ shahr ujaaḌ paḌā thā

    kyā sar pe pahāḌ aa paḌā thā

    qudrat to gavāh hai ki maidāñ

    haare the ki hārnā paḌā thā

    thī barf raat aur lashkar

    be-ḳhemā o be-ridā paḌā thā

    kyā bhiiḌ thī kal aur aaj dekhā

    sunsān vo rāsta paḌā thā

    kyuuñ ḳhemoñ aag bujh ga.ī thī

    ye raakh se pūchhnā paḌā thā

    vo shām-e-sukūt bhī ajab thī

    qātil ko pukārnā paḌā thā

    thā maal dukāñ meñ hasb-e-taḳhsis

    tah-ḳhāna magar aTā paḌā thā

    is bāb-e-rasad se rizq-e-taqdīr

    le aa.e jo kuchh girā paḌā thā

    apne mujassame ko toḌā

    haath apnā ġhalat bhī kyā paḌā thā

    kyun shahr ujaD sa paDa tha

    kya sar pe pahaD aa paDa tha

    qudrat to gawah hai ki maidan

    haare the ki haarna paDa tha

    thi barf si raat aur lashkar

    be-KHema o be-rida paDa tha

    kya bhiD thi kal aur aaj dekha

    sunsan wo rasta paDa tha

    kyun KHemon ki aag bujh gai thi

    ye rakh se puchhna paDa tha

    wo sham-e-sukut bhi ajab thi

    qatil ko pukarna paDa tha

    tha mal dukan mein hasb-e-taKHsis

    tah-KHana magar aTa paDa tha

    is bab-e-rasad se rizq-e-taqdir

    le aae jo kuchh gira paDa tha

    apne hi mujassame ko toDa

    hath apna ghalat bhi kya paDa tha
