masafaton mein dhup aur chhanw ka sawal kya
masāfatoñ meñ dhuup aur chhāñv kā savāl kyā
safar hī shart hai to phir uruuj kyā zavāl kyā
firāq-sā.atoñ ke zaḳhm ruuh tak pahuñch chuke
mayassar aa.eñ bhī to ab masā.ī-e-visāl kyā
hunar ko dhuup jañgaloñ kī muskurāhaToñ meñ hai
gulāb bastiyoñ meñ hañste rahne kā kamāl kyā
umiid hī to dil-shajar kī āḳhirī asaas thī
shagūfa ye bhī ho gayā ḳhizāñ se pā.emāl kyā
tamām-shahr hī havā ke dosh par savār hai
dikhā.e koī zaḳhm kyā sunā.e koī haal kyā
masafaton mein dhup aur chhanw ka sawal kya
safar hi shart hai to phir uruj kya zawal kya
firaq-saaton ke zaKHm ruh tak pahunch chuke
mayassar aaen bhi to ab masai-e-visal kya
hunar ko dhup jangalon ki muskurahaTon mein hai
gulab bastiyon mein hanste rahne ka kamal kya
umid hi to dil-shajar ki aaKHiri asas thi
shagufa ye bhi ho gaya KHizan se paemal kya
tamam-shahr hi hawa ke dosh par sawar hai
dikhae koi zaKHm kya sunae koi haal kya
