bayan safai
raat utartī ga.ī
mujh ko ḳhabar hī na thī
kāġhaz-e-be-rañg meñ sard-havas-jañg meñ
sub.h se masrūf log apnī chādar meñ band
aañkh khaTaktī nahīñ
dil pe barastī nahīñ
ḳhushk-hañsī be-namak shahr fazā meñ buland
tañg-galī kī havā
shaam ko chūhoñ kī dauḌ
tez-qadam gurba-e-shāh jahāñ kab jhapaT legī kise
kyā pata
niind kā ūñchā makāñ raushniyoñ se sajā
ham sab kī khiḌkiyāñ darvāze band haiñ
ghar kī chhateñ āhanī
ghar kī hifāzat karo ghar kī hifāzat karo
raat utartī rahe ham ko dikhā.ī na de
ham pe havā ilzām kyuuñ
raat utarti gai
mujh ko KHabar hi na thi
kaghaz-e-be-rang mein sard-hawas-jang mein
subh se masruf log apni chadar mein band
aankh khaTakti nahin
dil pe barasti nahin
KHushk-hansi be-namak shahr faza mein buland
tang-gali ki hawa
sham ko chuhon ki dauD
tez-qadam gurba-e-shah jahan kab jhapaT legi kise
kya pata
nind ka uncha makan raushniyon se saja
hum sab ki khiDkiyan darwaze band hain
ghar ki chhaten aahani
ghar ki hifazat karo ghar ki hifazat karo
raat utarti rahe hum ko dikhai na de
hum pe hawa ilzam kyun
