shahr sahra hai ghar bayaban hai
shahr sahrā hai ghar bayābāñ hai
dil kisī anjuman kā ḳhvāhāñ hai
mujh se kahtī haiñ vo udaas āñhkeñ
zindagī bhar kī sab thakan yaañ hai
ḳhvāb TuuTe paḌe haiñ sab mere
maiñ huuñ aur hairatoñ kā sāmāñ hai
har masarrat guñdhī huī dukh meñ
arz-e-azdād dasht-e-imkāñ hai
tū samundar kī be-kanārī dekh
us meñ me.ār-e-zarf pinhāñ hai
haiñ ravā saare nā-ravā us ko
ye na.e mausamoñ kā insāñ hai
mar ke pahuñchā to huuñ lab-e-dariyā
ḳhālī ab tishnagī kā dāmāñ hai
sab ne 'shāhid' chune pasand ke phuul
gul-kada phir bhī gul-ba-dāmāñ hai
shahr sahra hai ghar bayaban hai
dil kisi anjuman ka KHwahan hai
mujh se kahti hain wo udas aanhken
zindagi bhar ki sab thakan yan hai
KHwab TuTe paDe hain sab mere
main hun aur hairaton ka saman hai
har masarrat gundhi hui dukh mein
arz-e-azdad dasht-e-imkan hai
tu samundar ki be-kanari dekh
us mein mear-e-zarf pinhan hai
hain rawa sare na-rawa us ko
ye nae mausamon ka insan hai
mar ke pahuncha to hun lab-e-dariya
KHali ab tishnagi ka daman hai
sab ne 'shahid' chune pasand ke phul
gul-kada phir bhi gul-ba-daman hai
