zahr mein bujhti hui bel hai diwar ke sath
zahr meñ bujhtī huī bel hai dīvār ke saath
jaise ik nā.ika baiThī ho gunahgār ke saath
mujh se milnā hai to ye qaid nahīñ mujh ko pasand
har mulāqāt muqayyad rahe itvār ke saath
ek hī vaar meñ marne se kahīñ behtar hai
ek ik sar vo jo kaTtā rahe talvār ke saath
maiñ ne har-gām pe un logoñ ko marte dekhā
vo jo jiite rahe is daur meñ kirdār ke saath
ye jahāñ muflis-o-nādār kā hamdard ho kyuuñ
jis ke har kone pe tahrīr hai zardār ke saath
koī shā.ir mire marne kī ḳhabar laayā hai
ek sah-columnī surḳhī liye aḳhbār ke saath
jashn-e-ḳhūñ-nāb hai maqtal meñ muġhannī se kaho
koī ik raag nayā giit ho malhār ke saath
maiñ bhī is shahr-e-ḳhamoshāñ kā hī sākin huuñ 'umīd'
jis kī har lauh pe tahrīr hai āzār ke saath
zahr mein bujhti hui bel hai diwar ke sath
jaise ek naika baiThi ho gunahgar ke sath
mujh se milna hai to ye qaid nahin mujh ko pasand
har mulaqat muqayyad rahe itwar ke sath
ek hi war mein marne se kahin behtar hai
ek ek sar wo jo kaTta rahe talwar ke sath
main ne har-gam pe un logon ko marte dekha
wo jo jite rahe is daur mein kirdar ke sath
ye jahan muflis-o-nadar ka hamdard ho kyun
jis ke har kone pe tahrir hai zardar ke sath
koi shair mere marne ki KHabar laya hai
ek sah-columni surKHi liye aKHbar ke sath
jashn-e-KHun-nab hai maqtal mein mughanni se kaho
koi ek rag naya git ho malhaar ke sath
main bhi is shahr-e-KHamoshan ka hi sakin hun 'umid'
jis ki har lauh pe tahrir hai aazar ke sath
