miTTi pe koi naqsh bhi ubhra na rahega
miTTī pe koī naqsh bhī ubhrā na rahegā
gir jā.egī dīvār to saaya na rahegā
aa.egā nazar dhuup meñ chhat par vo khule sar
galiyoñ meñ ye rātoñ kā nikalnā na rahegā
shāḳhoñ se numū pattoñ se chhin jā.egī ḳhushbū
kaT jā.egā jab peḌ to kyā kyā na rahegā
sochūñ to koī lafz milegā na tire naam
likkhūñgā to kāġhaz koī saada na rahegā
bikhre hue chehroñ meñ khaḌā soch rahā huuñ
āñkheñ na raheñgī ki tamāshā na rahegā
miT jā.ūñgā likhte hue rūdād shab-o-roz
jab maiñ na rahūñgā mirā afsāna rahegā
kho jā.egī ḳhāmoshī meñ āvāz-e-jaras bhī
rāhoñ meñ kahīñ naqsh-e-kaf-e-pā na rahegā
aage bhī dikhā.ī nahīñ degī koī manzil
aur ghar ko palaTne kā bhī rasta na rahegā
maiñ harf huuñ likh lo mujhe āvāz huuñ sun lo
aate haiñ vo din jab koī mujh sā na rahegā
miTTi pe koi naqsh bhi ubhra na rahega
gir jaegi diwar to saya na rahega
aaega nazar dhup mein chhat par wo khule sar
galiyon mein ye raaton ka nikalna na rahega
shaKHon se numu patton se chhin jaegi KHushbu
kaT jaega jab peD to kya kya na rahega
sochun to koi lafz milega na tere nam
likkhunga to kaghaz koi sada na rahega
bikhre hue chehron mein khaDa soch raha hun
aankhen na rahengi ki tamasha na rahega
miT jaunga likhte hue rudad shab-o-roz
jab main na rahunga mera afsana rahega
kho jaegi KHamoshi mein aawaz-e-jaras bhi
rahon mein kahin naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa na rahega
aage bhi dikhai nahin degi koi manzil
aur ghar ko palaTne ka bhi rasta na rahega
main harf hun likh lo mujhe aawaz hun sun lo
aate hain wo din jab koi mujh sa na rahega
