main kya hun mujhe tumne jo aazar pe khincha
maiñ kyā huuñ mujhe tum ne jo āzār pe khīñchā
duniyā ne masīhāoñ ko bhī daar pe khīñchā
zindoñ kā to maskan bhī yahāñ qabr-numā hai
murdoñ ko magar darja-e-autār pe khīñchā
vo jaatā rahā aur maiñ kuchh bol na paayā
chiḌiyoñ ne magar shor sā dīvār pe khīñchā
kuchh bhī na bachā shahr meñ juz rone kī rut ke
har sho.ala-e-āvāz ko malhār pe khīñchā
yūsuf kabhī nīlām huā kartā thā lekin
yūsuf ko bhī is shahr ne hai daar pe khīñchā
phūTe haiñ mere dil meñ phir inkār ke sote
phir dil ne mujhe hālat-e-dushvār pe khīñchā
har shai kī haqīqat meñ utar jaa.eñ ab āñkheñ
zulmat ne mujhe dīda-e-bedār pe khīñchā
dukh ālam-e-insān ke the jo vo chhupā.e
ḳhat chāñd ko sar karne kā aḳhbār pe khīñchā
tum ne to 'faqīh' apnī anā kas ke mujhe bhī
paikāñ kī tarah hālat-e-paikār pe khīñchā
main kya hun mujhe tum ne jo aazar pe khincha
duniya ne masihaon ko bhi dar pe khincha
zindon ka to maskan bhi yahan qabr-numa hai
murdon ko magar darja-e-autar pe khincha
wo jata raha aur main kuchh bol na paya
chiDiyon ne magar shor sa diwar pe khincha
kuchh bhi na bacha shahr mein juz rone ki rut ke
har shoala-e-awaz ko malhaar pe khincha
yusuf kabhi nilam hua karta tha lekin
yusuf ko bhi is shahr ne hai dar pe khincha
phuTe hain mere dil mein phir inkar ke sote
phir dil ne mujhe haalat-e-dushwar pe khincha
har shai ki haqiqat mein utar jaen ab aankhen
zulmat ne mujhe dida-e-bedar pe khincha
dukh aalam-e-insan ke the jo wo chhupae
KHat chand ko sar karne ka aKHbar pe khincha
tum ne to 'faqih' apni ana kas ke mujhe bhi
paikan ki tarah haalat-e-paikar pe khincha
