chand ke musafir
zindagī ko dekhā hai zindagī se bhāge haiñ
raushnī ke āñchal meñ tīrgī ke dhāge haiñ
tīrgī ke dhāgoñ meñ ḳhuun kī ravānī hai
dard hai mohabbat hai husn hai javānī hai
har taraf vahī andhā khel hai anāsir kā
tairtā chale sāhil Dūbtā chale dariyā
chāñd ho to kākul kī lahr aur chaḌhtī hai
raat aur ghaTtī hai baat aur baḌhtī hai
ye kashish magar kyā hai reshmī lakīroñ meñ
shaam kaise hotī hai nāchte jazīroñ meñ
har qadam na.ī uljhan sau tarah kī zanjīreñ
falsafoñ ke vīrāne dūsroñ kī jāgīreñ
āñdhiyāñ ujāloñ kī ghan-garaj siyāsat kī
kāñpte haiñ sayyāre raat hai qayāmat kī
jañg se jale duniyā chāñd ko chale pāgal
aañkh par gire bijlī kaan meñ paḌe kājal
daur hai parindoñ kā chheḌ hai sitāroñ se
kā.enāt aajiz hai ham gunāhgāroñ se
zindagi ko dekha hai zindagi se bhage hain
raushni ke aanchal mein tirgi ke dhage hain
tirgi ke dhagon mein KHun ki rawani hai
dard hai mohabbat hai husn hai jawani hai
har taraf wahi andha khel hai anasir ka
tairta chale sahil Dubta chale dariya
chand ho to kakul ki lahr aur chaDhti hai
raat aur ghaTti hai baat aur baDhti hai
ye kashish magar kya hai reshmi lakiron mein
sham kaise hoti hai nachte jaziron mein
har qadam nai uljhan sau tarah ki zanjiren
falsafon ke virane dusron ki jagiren
aandhiyan ujalon ki ghan-garaj siyasat ki
kanpte hain sayyare raat hai qayamat ki
jang se jale duniya chand ko chale pagal
aankh par gire bijli kan mein paDe kajal
daur hai parindon ka chheD hai sitaron se
kaenat aajiz hai hum gunahgaron se
