log patthar ke the fariyaad kahan tak karte
log patthar ke the fariyād kahāñ tak karte
dil ke vīrāne ham ābād kahāñ tak karte
āḳhirash kar liyā miTTī ke haram meñ qayām
ḳhud ko ham ḳhānamāñ-barbād kahāñ tak karte
ek zindān-e-mohabbat meñ hue ham bhī asiir
ḳhud ko har qaid se āzād kahāñ tak karte
ḳhud pe mauqūf kiyā us kā faqat dars-e-visāl
har na.e dars ko ham yaad kahāñ tak karte
kar liyā ek bayābāñ ko musaḳhḳhar ham ne
roz tasvīr ko ījād kahāñ tak karte
log ḳhāmosh the isbāt o nafī ke mābain
aise māhaul meñ irshād kahāñ tak karte
har vajūd apne liye ek savālī thā 'tarāz'
ḳhud ko ham mā.il-e-ab.ād kahāñ tak karte
log patthar ke the fariyaad kahan tak karte
dil ke virane hum aabaad kahan tak karte
aaKHirash kar liya miTTi ke haram mein qayam
KHud ko hum KHanaman-barbaad kahan tak karte
ek zindan-e-mohabbat mein hue hum bhi asir
KHud ko har qaid se aazad kahan tak karte
KHud pe mauquf kiya us ka faqat dars-e-visal
har nae dars ko hum yaad kahan tak karte
kar liya ek bayaban ko musaKHKHar hum ne
roz taswir ko ijad kahan tak karte
log KHamosh the isbaat o nafi ke mabain
aise mahaul mein irshad kahan tak karte
har wajud apne liye ek sawali tha 'taraaz'
KHud ko hum mail-e-abaad kahan tak karte
