nagar mein rahte the lekin gharon se dur rahe
nagar meñ rahte the lekin gharoñ se duur rahe
ajiib log the jo dilbaroñ se duur rahe
duā.eñ māñgte phirte haiñ log galiyoñ meñ
matā-e-hosh hamāre saroñ se duur rahe
ye log kīmiyā-gar haiñ parakh na leñ ham ko
ye baat soch ke vo be-zaroñ se duur rahe
matā-e-dard luTāte rahe zamāne meñ
ham ahl-e-dard the saudāgaroñ se duur rahe
girūñ zamīn pe maiñ TuuT kar sitārā sā
magar sukūn kī ḳhvāhish paroñ se duur rahe
nikal ke ḳhud se shanāsā.ī kī nazar DhūñDo
jo log ghar meñ rahe dūsroñ se duur rahe
badan hai shīshe ke mānind vaqt kā iqbāl
use batāo ki ham pattharoñ se duur rahe
nagar mein rahte the lekin gharon se dur rahe
ajib log the jo dilbaron se dur rahe
duaen mangte phirte hain log galiyon mein
mata-e-hosh hamare saron se dur rahe
ye log kimiya-gar hain parakh na len hum ko
ye baat soch ke wo be-zaron se dur rahe
mata-e-dard luTate rahe zamane mein
hum ahl-e-dard the saudagaron se dur rahe
girun zamin pe main TuT kar sitara sa
magar sukun ki KHwahish paron se dur rahe
nikal ke KHud se shanasai ki nazar DhunDo
jo log ghar mein rahe dusron se dur rahe
badan hai shishe ke manind waqt ka iqbaal
use batao ki hum pattharon se dur rahe
