sadiyon ke andhere mein utara kare koi
sadiyoñ ke añdhere meñ utārā kare koī
sūraj ko kisī roz hamārā kare koī
ik ḳhauf sā bas ghūmtā rahtā hai saroñ meñ
duniyā kā mire ghar se nazāra kare koī
rañgoñ kā tasavvur bhī uḌā aañkh se ab to
is shahr meñ ab kaise guzārā kare koī
yuuñ dard ne ummīd ke laḌ se mujhe bāñdhā
dariyāoñ ko jis tarah kinārā kare koī
īñdhan se huā jin ke safar chāñd kā mumkin
un ke bhī to chūlhe ko sañvārā kare koī
rātoñ kī hukūmat meñ mire ḳhvāb kā taarā
jiine ke liye jaise ishārā kare koī
ye aaj bhī apnā hai 'faqīh' is kā bhī socho
kis tak yūñhī yādoñ ko sahārā kare koī
sadiyon ke andhere mein utara kare koi
suraj ko kisi roz hamara kare koi
ek KHauf sa bas ghumta rahta hai saron mein
duniya ka mere ghar se nazara kare koi
rangon ka tasawwur bhi uDa aankh se ab to
is shahr mein ab kaise guzara kare koi
yun dard ne ummid ke laD se mujhe bandha
dariyaon ko jis tarah kinara kare koi
indhan se hua jin ke safar chand ka mumkin
un ke bhi to chulhe ko sanwara kare koi
raaton ki hukumat mein mere KHwab ka tara
jine ke liye jaise ishaara kare koi
ye aaj bhi apna hai 'faqih' is ka bhi socho
kis tak yunhi yaadon ko sahaara kare koi
