main apna nam tere jism par likha dekhun
maiñ apnā naam tire jism par likhā dekhūñ
dikhā.ī degā abhī battiyāñ bujhā dekhūñ
phir us ko pā.ūñ mirā intizār karte hue
phir us makān kā darvāza adh-khulā dekhūñ
ghaTā.eñ aa.eñ to ghar ghar ko Dūbtā pā.ūñ
havā chale to har ik peḌ ko girā dekhūñ
kitāb kholūñ to harfoñ meñ khalbalī mach jaa.e
qalam uThā.ūñ to kāġhaz ko phailtā dekhūñ
utaar pheñkūñ badan se phaTī purānī qamīs
badan qamīs se baḌh kar kaTā-phaTā dekhūñ
vahīñ kahīñ na paḌī ho tamannā jiine kī
phir ek baar unhīñ jañgaloñ meñ jā dekhūñ
vo roz shaam ko 'alvī' idhar se jaatī hai
to kyā maiñ aaj use apne ghar bulā dekhūñ
main apna nam tere jism par likha dekhun
dikhai dega abhi battiyan bujha dekhun
phir us ko paun mera intizar karte hue
phir us makan ka darwaza adh-khula dekhun
ghaTaen aaen to ghar ghar ko Dubta paun
hawa chale to har ek peD ko gira dekhun
kitab kholun to harfon mein khalbali mach jae
qalam uThaun to kaghaz ko phailta dekhun
utar phenkun badan se phaTi purani qamis
badan qamis se baDh kar kaTa-phaTa dekhun
wahin kahin na paDi ho tamanna jine ki
phir ek bar unhin jangalon mein ja dekhun
wo roz sham ko 'alwi' idhar se jati hai
to kya main aaj use apne ghar bula dekhun
