rahī na yaaro āḳhir sakat havāoñ meñ
chaar diye raushan haiñ chaar dishāoñ meñ
kaa.ī jamī thī siine meñ jaane kab se
chīḳh uThā vo aa kar khulī fazāoñ meñ
apnī gum āvāzeñ aao talāsh kareñ
sabz parindoñ kī sayyāl sadāoñ meñ
maiñ bhī kured rahā thā ḳhaak kī partoñ ko
vo bhī jhāñk rahā thā duur ḳhalāoñ meñ
ThanDī chhāñv dekh ke vo aa baiThā thā
ulajh gayā bargad kī ghanī jaTāoñ meñ
ghaaT ghaaT koshish kī paar utarne kī
lahr koī dushman thī sab dariyāoñ meñ
vo sarsabz zamīnoñ tak ham-safar rahā
uḌ na sakā phir mere saath havāoñ meñ
paanī zarā barasne de manzar phir dekh
rañg chhupe haiñ sab in siyah ghaTāoñ meñ
aa maiñ tere man meñ jhāñkūñ aur batā.ūñ
kyuuñ tāsīr nahīñ hai tirī duāoñ meñ
sab aapas meñ laḌ kar bastī chhoḌ ga.e
ḳhush ḳhush jā ābād hue sahrāoñ meñ
ek talab ne 'bānī' bahut ḳharāb kiyā
āḳhir ham bhī hue shumār gadāoñ meñ
rahi na yaro aaKHir sakat hawaon mein
chaar diye raushan hain chaar dishaon mein
kai jami thi sine mein jaane kab se
chiKH uTha wo aa kar khuli fazaon mein
apni gum aawazen aao talash karen
sabz parindon ki sayyal sadaon mein
main bhi kured raha tha KHak ki parton ko
wo bhi jhank raha tha dur KHalaon mein
ThanDi chhanw dekh ke wo aa baiTha tha
ulajh gaya bargad ki ghani jaTaon mein
ghaT ghaT koshish ki par utarne ki
lahr koi dushman thi sab dariyaon mein
wo sarsabz zaminon tak ham-safar raha
uD na saka phir mere sath hawaon mein
pani zara barasne de manzar phir dekh
rang chhupe hain sab in siyah ghaTaon mein
aa main tere man mein jhankun aur bataun
kyun tasir nahin hai teri duaon mein
sab aapas mein laD kar basti chhoD gae
KHush KHush ja aabaad hue sahraon mein
ek talab ne 'bani' bahut KHarab kiya
aaKHir hum bhi hue shumar gadaon mein
