sar pe suraj ho magar saya na ho aisa na tha
sar pe sūraj ho magar saaya na ho aisā na thā
pahle bhī tanhā thā lekin is qadar tanhā na thā
vo to ye kahiye ġham-e-daurāñ ne rakh lī aabrū
varna dil kī baat thī kuchh khel bachchoñ kā na thā
bach ke tūfāñ se nikal aayā to hairānī hai kyuuñ
go safīna Dūbtā thā hausla TuuTā na thā
aap aa.e to yaqīñ karnā paḌā varna yahāñ
raat ko sūraj kabhī aflāk par niklā na thā
shahr-e-dillī ā.īna-ḳhāna hai lekin ai 'atā'
jaal to ḳhush-fahmiyoñ kā aap ko bunñā na thā
sar pe suraj ho magar saya na ho aisa na tha
pahle bhi tanha tha lekin is qadar tanha na tha
wo to ye kahiye gham-e-dauran ne rakh li aabru
warna dil ki baat thi kuchh khel bachchon ka na tha
bach ke tufan se nikal aaya to hairani hai kyun
go safina Dubta tha hausla TuTa na tha
aap aae to yaqin karna paDa warna yahan
raat ko suraj kabhi aflak par nikla na tha
shahr-e-dilli aaina-KHana hai lekin ai 'ata'
jal to KHush-fahmiyon ka aap ko bunna na tha
