ye alag baat ki hum sa nahin pyasa koi
ye alag baat ki ham sā nahīñ pyāsā koī
phir bhī dariyā se ta.alluq nahīñ rakkhā koī
mere maktab ko dhamāke se uḌāyā gayā hai
ab ki hāthoñ meñ kitābeñ haiñ na basta koī
jaane kis or gayā qāfila ummīdoñ kā
dil ke sahrā meñ nahīñ aas kā ḳhema koī
kis ajab dhun meñ yahāñ umr gañvā.ī ham ne
qarz miTTī kā utārā na hī apnā koī
pyaas ke hāthoñ mirā qatl huā hai 'nomān'
dost dariyā the magar paas na aayā koī
ye alag baat ki hum sa nahin pyasa koi
phir bhi dariya se talluq nahin rakkha koi
mere maktab ko dhamake se uDaya gaya hai
ab ki hathon mein kitaben hain na basta koi
jaane kis or gaya qafila ummidon ka
dil ke sahra mein nahin aas ka KHema koi
kis ajab dhun mein yahan umr ganwai hum ne
qarz miTTi ka utara na hi apna koi
pyas ke hathon mera qatl hua hai 'noman'
dost dariya the magar pas na aaya koi
