umr sahra-e-KHamoshi mein guzaren kaise
umr sahrā-e-ḳhamoshī meñ guzāreñ kaise
baar baar us kī jagah ḳhud ko pukāreñ kaise
TikTikī bāñdh ke maiñ dekh rahā thā phir bhī
kaT ga.ī merī nigāhoñ se bahāreñ kaise
jis meñ tūfāñ hai na tūfān ke koī āsār
kashtiyāñ aise samundar meñ utāreñ kaise
raat ke dasht meñ nādīda dayāroñ kā safar
aisī sūrat meñ koī raah sañvāreñ kaise
log 'ābid' ke liye sang-ba-kaf phirte haiñ
us ko is shahr kī galiyoñ se guzāreñ kaise
umr sahra-e-KHamoshi mein guzaren kaise
bar bar us ki jagah KHud ko pukaren kaise
TikTiki bandh ke main dekh raha tha phir bhi
kaT gai meri nigahon se bahaaren kaise
jis mein tufan hai na tufan ke koi aasar
kashtiyan aise samundar mein utaren kaise
raat ke dasht mein nadida dayaron ka safar
aisi surat mein koi rah sanwaren kaise
log 'abid' ke liye sang-ba-kaf phirte hain
us ko is shahr ki galiyon se guzaren kaise
