shahr-ashob likhun shahr-e-tamanna likkhun
shahr-āshob likhūñ shahr-e-tamannā likkhūñ
ai dayār-e-ġham-e-jānāñ meñ tujhe kyā likhūñ
nisbateñ saarī adhūrī haiñ to rishta kaisā
ban ke vo mauj uThe ḳhud ko maiñ dariyā likkhūñ
be-hisī itnī ki maiñ ḳhud se bhī begāna rahūñ
dard itnā hai ki begānoñ ko apnā likkhūñ
husn ke ruup haiñ itne ki qalam hairāñ hai
ishq meñ Duub hī jā.ūñ use yaktā likkhūñ
apne ghar kī na.ī tārīḳh ke aurāq pe ab
kahīñ dīmak kahīñ makḌī kahīñ jaalā likkhūñ
ik nazar sāmne dīvār pe chaspāñ kar ke
apnā anjām paḌhūñ us kā sarāpā likhūñ
umr-bhar ek hī tasvīr banā.ī maiñ ne
apnī āvāra-mizājī pe 'ziyā' kyā likkhūñ
shahr-ashob likhun shahr-e-tamanna likkhun
ai dayar-e-gham-e-jaanan mein tujhe kya likhun
nisbaten sari adhuri hain to rishta kaisa
ban ke wo mauj uThe KHud ko main dariya likkhun
be-hisi itni ki main KHud se bhi begana rahun
dard itna hai ki beganon ko apna likkhun
husn ke rup hain itne ki qalam hairan hai
ishq mein Dub hi jaun use yakta likkhun
apne ghar ki nai tariKH ke auraq pe ab
kahin dimak kahin makDi kahin jala likkhun
ek nazar samne diwar pe chaspan kar ke
apna anjam paDhun us ka sarapa likhun
umr-bhar ek hi taswir banai main ne
apni aawara-mizaji pe 'ziya' kya likkhun
