vo laḌkī lagtī thī ajnabī sī zarā se khaTke pe chauñktī thī
ye us ke saath hādsa huā kyā ki baiThe baiThe bikhar ga.ī vo
vo koī shai apnī kho chukī thī vo DhūñDhtī us ko phir rahī thī
vo shahr shahr aur gaañv gaañv talāsh meñ dar-ba-dar ga.ī vo
na ham-navā thā na ham-zabāñ thā na dard kā koī rāz-dāñ thā
bas apnī āñkhoñ se qatra qatra Tapak Tapak kar bikhar ga.ī vo
na koī dīvār-o-dar thā koī na ham-safar ham-suḳhan thā koī
bichārī kā koī ghar kahāñ thā ki kah deñ ham apne ghar ga.ī vo
tamām anjān kūche galiyāñ tamām kāñTe tamām chhuriyāñ
kisī tarah apnā dil sambhāle bachā ke dāman guzar ga.ī vo
kisī se qaul-o-qarār thā kyā ki va.adoñ kā e.atibār thā kyā
jahāñ koī surḳh joḌā dekhā to dil ko thāme Thahar ga.ī vo

wo ek laDki jo KHanda-lab thi na jaane kyun chashm-tar gai wo
abhi to baiThi sisak rahi thi abhi na jaane kidhar gai wo
wo laDki lagti thi ajnabi si zara se khaTke pe chaunkti thi
ye us ke sath hadsa hua kya ki baiThe baiThe bikhar gai wo
wo koi shai apni kho chuki thi wo DhunDhti us ko phir rahi thi
wo shahr shahr aur ganw ganw talash mein dar-ba-dar gai wo
na ham-nawa tha na ham-zaban tha na dard ka koi raaz-dan tha
bas apni aankhon se qatra qatra Tapak Tapak kar bikhar gai wo
na koi diwar-o-dar tha koi na ham-safar ham-suKHan tha koi
bichaari ka koi ghar kahan tha ki kah den hum apne ghar gai wo
tamam anjaan kuche galiyan tamam kanTe tamam chhuriyan
kisi tarah apna dil sambhaale bacha ke daman guzar gai wo
kisi se qaul-o-qarar tha kya ki wadon ka eatibar tha kya
jahan koi surKH joDa dekha to dil ko thame Thahar gai wo
sitaron se ja ke mil gai hai ki baadalon mein chhupi hui hai
uDan us ki bahut baDi thi agarche be-baal-o-par gai wo
rahi wo sare chaman mein 'anjum' be-ashna aur be-shanasa
main kahti hun par utar gai wo zamana kahta hai mar gai wo
