main zamin Thahra to usko aasman hona hi tha
maiñ zamīñ Thahrā to us ko āsmāñ honā hī thā
āsmāñ ho kar use nā-mehrbāñ honā hī thā
pyaas kī tahrīr se to ye ayaañ honā hī thā
be-nishāñ bātil to haq ko jāvedāñ honā hī thā
ruuh kī tajsīm se mumkin huī hai zindagī
lā-makāñ ke vāste bhī ik makāñ honā hī thā
vo gunah kī sarzamīñ par jannatoñ kā ḳhvāb thā
is tarah ke ḳhvāb ko to rā.egāñ honā hī thā
kab thī firdaus-e-barīñ meñ lazzat-e-lutf-e-gunah
is zamīñ kī justujū meñ kuchh ziyāñ honā hī thā
be nishāñ rastoñ pe ab tak gāmzan hai ye zamīñ
is liye bhī āsmāñ ko be-karāñ honā hī thā
meñ chalā thā raat ko bhī din banāne ke liye
sar pe mere dhuup ko phir sā.ebāñ honā hī thā
main zamin Thahra to us ko aasman hona hi tha
aasman ho kar use na-mehrban hona hi tha
pyas ki tahrir se to ye ayan hona hi tha
be-nishan baatil to haq ko jawedan hona hi tha
ruh ki tajsim se mumkin hui hai zindagi
la-makan ke waste bhi ek makan hona hi tha
wo gunah ki sarzamin par jannaton ka KHwab tha
is tarah ke KHwab ko to raegan hona hi tha
kab thi firdaus-e-barin mein lazzat-e-lutf-e-gunah
is zamin ki justuju mein kuchh ziyan hona hi tha
be nishan raston pe ab tak gamzan hai ye zamin
is liye bhi aasman ko be-karan hona hi tha
mein chala tha raat ko bhi din banane ke liye
sar pe mere dhup ko phir saeban hona hi tha
