uski surat uski aankhen us ka chehra bhul gae
us kī sūrat us kī āñkheñ us kā chehrā bhuul ga.e
jis raste par barsoñ bhaTke ham vo rastā bhuul ga.e
tez havā ke zālim jhoñke lamha lamha saath rahe
lamha lamha ik muddat tak dard jo uTThā bhuul ga.e
sahrā sahrā chalte chalte kuchh aise mānūs hue
apne apne shahar kā raahī gosha gosha bhuul ga.e
pagDanDī jo rañj-o-alam ko jaatī thī vo yaad nahīñ
ḳhushiyoñ kā bhī shīsh-mahal meñ ek thā Derā bhuul ga.e
kahte haiñ kuchh dost hamāre ham kaafī mutvāzin haiñ
is manzil tak aate aate jaane kyā kyā bhuul ga.e
us ki surat us ki aankhen us ka chehra bhul gae
jis raste par barson bhaTke hum wo rasta bhul gae
tez hawa ke zalim jhonke lamha lamha sath rahe
lamha lamha ek muddat tak dard jo uTTha bhul gae
sahra sahra chalte chalte kuchh aise manus hue
apne apne shahar ka rahi gosha gosha bhul gae
pagDanDi jo ranj-o-alam ko jati thi wo yaad nahin
KHushiyon ka bhi shish-mahal mein ek tha Dera bhul gae
kahte hain kuchh dost hamare hum kafi mutwazin hain
is manzil tak aate aate jaane kya kya bhul gae
