    mere shahr ke saare raste band haiñ logo

    maiñ is shahr naġhma-gar

    jo do ik mausam ġhurbat ke dukh jhel ke aayā

    taaki apne ghar dīvāroñ se

    apnī thakī huī aur tarsī huī

    āñkheñ sahlā.ūñ

    apne darvāze ke utarte roġhan ko

    apne ashkoñ se saiqal kar luuñ

    apne chaman ke jale hue paudoñ

    aur gard-ālūd daraḳhtoñ

    murda shāḳhoñ par bain karūñ

    har mahjūr sutūn ko itnā TuuT ke chūmūñ

    mere laboñ ke ḳhuun se

    un ke naqsh-o-nigār sabhī uTheñ

    galī ke logoñ ko itnā dekhūñ

    itnā dekhūñ

    merī āñkheñ

    barsoñ tarsī huī āñkheñ

    chehroñ ke āñgan ban jaa.eñ

    phir maiñ apnā saaz uThā.ūñ

    āñsuoñ aur muskānoñ se jhilmil jhilmil

    nazmeñ ġhazleñ giit sunā.ūñ

    apne pyāroñ

    dard ke māroñ darmāñ ban jā.ūñ

    lekin mere shahr ke saare rastoñ par

    ab baaḌ hai lohe ke kāñToñ

    shah darvāze par kuchh pahre-dār khaḌe haiñ

    jo mujh se aur mujh jaise dil vāloñ

    pahchān se aarī

    aur maiñ apne jism malba

    saaz lāsha

    apne shahr ke shah-darvāze

    mere shahr ke sare raste band hain logo

    main is shahr ka naghma-gar

    jo do ek mausam ghurbat ke dukh jhel ke aaya

    taki apne ghar ki diwaron se

    apni thaki hui aur tarsi hui

    aankhen sahlaun

    apne darwaze ke utarte roghan ko

    apne ashkon se saiqal kar lun

    apne chaman ke jale hue paudon

    aur gard-alud daraKHton ki

    murda shaKHon par bain karun

    har mahjur sutun ko itna TuT ke chumun

    mere labon ke KHun se

    un ke naqsh-o-nigar sabhi ji uThen

    gali ke logon ko itna dekhun

    itna dekhun

    meri aankhen

    barson ki tarsi hui aankhen

    chehron ke aangan ban jaen

    phir main apna saz uThaun

    aansuon aur muskanon se jhilmil jhilmil

    nazmen ghazlen git sunaun

    apne pyaron

    dard ke maron ka darman ban jaun

    lekin mere shahr ke sare raston par

    ab baD hai lohe ke kanTon ki

    shah darwaze par kuchh pahre-dar khaDe hain

    jo mujh se aur mujh jaise dil walon ki

    pahchan se aari

    mere saz se

    sanginon se baat karen

    main un se kahta hun

    dekho

    main is shahr ka naghma-gar hun

    barson baad kaDi rahon ki

    sari aziyyat jhel ke ab wapas aaya hun

    us miTTi ki KHatir

    jis ki KHushbuen

    duniya bhar ki do-shizaon ke jismon ki mahkon se

    aur sare jahan ke

    sabhi gulabon se

    baDh kar hai

    mujh ko shahr mein

    mere shahr mein jaane do

    lekin tane hue nezon ne

    mere jism ko yun barmaya

    mere saz ko yun rezaya

    mera humakta KHun aur mere sisakte naghme

    shah-darwaze ki dahliz se

    riste riste

    shahr ke andar ja pahunche hain

    aur main apne jism ka malba

    saz ka lasha

    apne shahr ke shah-darwaze

    ki dahliz pe chhoD ke

    phir anjaane shahron ki shahrahon par

    majbur-e-safar hun

    jin ko taj kar ghar aaya tha

    jin ko taj kar ghar aaya tha
