udasi hi udasi hai baDe bezar baiThe hain
udāsī hī udāsī hai baḌe bezār baiThe haiñ
na jaane kyā vo baazī thī jise ham haar baiThe haiñ
havā ke haath meñ hai uf ye kis mausam kā parvāna
parinde phir paroñ meñ Daal kar minqār baiThe haiñ
mashīnoñ ke sukūñ-nā-āshnā is daur meñ yaaro
kahāñ vo log jo kahte the ham bekār baiThe haiñ
kisī dīvār kā saaya ki koī moḌ kā patthar
jahāñ baiThe haiñ goyā dar-ḳhur-e-āzār baiThe haiñ
usī kā naam hai shāyad rah-e-ulfat kī majbūrī
kahīñ se be-sabab uTThe kahīñ nā-chār baiThe haiñ
inhī logoñ ne maujoñ ko safīnoñ kī adā dī hai
abhī us paar aTke the jo ab is paar baiThe haiñ
niyāz-o-nāz kī vo kashmakash bhī ab kahāñ 'rāhī'
jise ham dil samajhte the use bhī maar baiThe haiñ
udasi hi udasi hai baDe bezar baiThe hain
na jaane kya wo bazi thi jise hum haar baiThe hain
hawa ke hath mein hai uf ye kis mausam ka parwana
parinde phir paron mein Dal kar minqar baiThe hain
mashinon ke sukun-na-ashna is daur mein yaro
kahan wo log jo kahte the hum bekar baiThe hain
kisi diwar ka saya ki koi moD ka patthar
jahan baiThe hain goya dar-KHur-e-azar baiThe hain
usi ka nam hai shayad rah-e-ulfat ki majburi
kahin se be-sabab uTThe kahin na-chaar baiThe hain
inhi logon ne maujon ko safinon ki ada di hai
abhi us par aTke the jo ab is par baiThe hain
niyaz-o-naz ki wo kashmakash bhi ab kahan 'rahi'
jise hum dil samajhte the use bhi mar baiThe hain
