phir hunar-mandon ke ghar se be-hunar jata hun main
phir hunar-mandoñ ke ghar se be-hunar jaatā huuñ maiñ
tum ḳhabar be-zār ho ahl-e-nazar jaatā huuñ maiñ
jeb meñ rakh lī haiñ kyuuñ tum ne zabāneñ kaaT kar
kis se ab ye ajnabī pūchhe kidhar jaatā huuñ maiñ
haañ maiñ saaya huuñ kisī shai kā magar ye bhī to dekh
gar ta.āqub meñ na ho sūraj to mar jaatā huuñ maiñ
haath āñkhoñ se uThā kar dekh mujh se kuchh na pūchh
kyuuñ ufuq par phailtī sub.hoñ se Dar jaatā huuñ maiñ
bas yūñhī tanhā rahūñgā is safar meñ umr bhar
jis taraf koī nahīñ jaatā udhar jaatā huuñ maiñ
ḳhauf kī ye intihā sadiyoñ se āñkheñ band haiñ
shauq kī ye ablahī be-bāl-o-par jaatā huuñ maiñ
'arsh' rasmoñ kī panah-gāheñ bhī ab sar par nahīñ
aur vahshī rāstoñ par be-sipar jaatā huuñ maiñ
phir hunar-mandon ke ghar se be-hunar jata hun main
tum KHabar be-zar ho ahl-e-nazar jata hun main
jeb mein rakh li hain kyun tum ne zabanen kaT kar
kis se ab ye ajnabi puchhe kidhar jata hun main
han main saya hun kisi shai ka magar ye bhi to dekh
gar taaqub mein na ho suraj to mar jata hun main
hath aankhon se uTha kar dekh mujh se kuchh na puchh
kyun ufuq par phailti subhon se Dar jata hun main
bas yunhi tanha rahunga is safar mein umr bhar
jis taraf koi nahin jata udhar jata hun main
KHauf ki ye intiha sadiyon se aankhen band hain
shauq ki ye ablahi be-baal-o-par jata hun main
'arsh' rasmon ki panah-gahen bhi ab sar par nahin
aur wahshi raston par be-sipar jata hun main
