    ye ik sitārā

    jo duur añdhere god meñ jagmagā rahā hai

    kisī ghar hai

    kisī ābād-o-pur-sukūñ ghar

    ye usī ghar hai

    jo merī mānind dar-ba-dar hai na be-sahārā

    magar vo lākhoñ zamīn-zāde

    ki jin ke bosīda ghar charāġhoñ raushnī ko

    taras rahe haiñ

    ki jin ke dīvār-o-dar inhīñ mausamoñ shiddat

    masā.ib-o-ġham ke sail-e-be-mehr meñ

    tahaffuz na de sake haiñ na de sakeñge

    ki jin ke bachchoñ ne bhuuk se aur anaaj ugāne se

    paa.ī fursat to dars-gāhoñ ke ḳhvāb dekhe

    kahāñ har ik shaḳhs muqaddar qalam chhue aur kitāb dekhe

    ye ḳhvāb ḳhvāboñ se baḌh na paa.e

    vo likhne paḌhne aarzū le kar mar ga.e aur paḌh na paa.e

    magar vo lākhoñ zamīn-zāde

    jo shahr jagmagātī saḌkoñ pe

    mauj-dar-mauj besh-qīmat javāhir-o-pairahan is dā.imī numā.ish ko

    roz-o-shab hasrat-o-tahayyur se dekhte haiñ

    phir un nazreñ ḳhud apne malbūs par

    mashīnoñ ke tel ke daaġh DhūñDhtī haiñ

    to phir ye hairat baat kab hai

    ki maiñ bhī lākhoñ zamīn-zādoñ tarah ābād shāh-rāhoñ pe

    zindagī aur raushnī DhūñDne ḳhātir bhaTak rahā huuñ

    maiñ dar-ba-dar ho ke un ke ghar

    ḳhushbuoñ se aur raushnī se bhar duuñ

    maiñ dar-ba-dar ho ke

    un ke bachchoñ pe marhale zindagī ke

    mumkin hai sahl kar duuñ

    maiñ un ke ḳhvāboñ ko sach kar duuñ

    aur harf-o-āhang madad se

    unheñ naved-e-bahār duuñ

    sub.h tamanna diloñ meñ un ke utārūñ

    kaash maiñ ufuq par

    sunahre alfāz meñ bashārat likhūñ sahar

    ye ho sake to mujhe tamanna nahīñ hai ghar

    ye ek sitara

    jo dur andhere ki god mein jagmaga raha hai

    kisi ka ghar hai

    kisi ka aabaad-o-pur-sukun ghar

    ye usi ka ghar hai

    jo meri manind dar-ba-dar hai na be-sahaara

    magar wo lakhon zamin-zade

    ki jin ke bosida ghar charaghon ki raushni ko

    taras rahe hain

    ki jin ke diwar-o-dar inhin mausamon ki shiddat

    masaib-o-gham ke sail-e-be-mehr mein

    tahaffuz na de sake hain na de sakenge

    ki jin ke bachchon ne bhuk se aur anaj ugane se

    pai fursat to dars-gahon ke KHwab dekhe

    kahan har ek shaKHs ka muqaddar qalam chhue aur kitab dekhe

    ye KHwab KHwabon se baDh na pae

    wo likhne paDhne ki aarzu le kar mar gae aur paDh na pae

    magar wo lakhon zamin-zade

    jo shahr ki jagmagati saDkon pe

    mauj-dar-mauj besh-qimat jawahir-o-pairahan ki is daimi numaish ko

    roz-o-shab hasrat-o-tahayyur se dekhte hain

    phir un ki nazren KHud apne malbus par

    mashinon ke tel ke dagh DhunDhti hain

    to phir ye hairat ki baat kab hai

    ki main bhi lakhon zamin-zadon ki tarah aabaad shah-rahon pe

    zindagi aur raushni DhunDne ki KHatir bhaTak raha hun

    main dar-ba-dar ho ke un ke ghar

    KHushbuon se aur raushni se bhar dun

    main dar-ba-dar ho ke

    un ke bachchon pe marhale zindagi ke

    mumkin hai sahl kar dun

    main un ke KHwabon ko sach kar dun

    aur harf-o-ahang ki madad se

    unhen nawed-e-bahaar dun

    subh ki tamanna dilon mein un ke utarun

    kash main ufuq par

    sunahre alfaz mein bashaarat likhun sahar ki

    ye ho sake to mujhe tamanna nahin hai ghar ki
