chhipkili

hajla-e-tārīk meñ paa.ī hai is ne parvarish

sham.a jalte hī dar-o-dīvār par

le ke maTiyālā sā kāhīda badan

jhūmtī sar-mast aa jaatī hai ye

pā-ba-jaulāñ chand parvānoñ ke paas

ġhota-zan paate hī jin ko āb-shār-e-nūr meñ

tez chamkīlī nukīlī aañkh se

yuuñ dekhtī hai bār-bār

jaise ik sarmāya-dār

māl-o-zar kī oT se

kartā hai muflis kā shikār

phir nikal jaatī hai ye

soz-o-ġham ke shāhkār

raushnī ke tājdār

chand parvānoñ kī jāñ-sozī se kyā matlab ise

sham.a kī raushnī ḳhayālī is ke pīchhe gard hai

hajla-e-tārīk meñ paa.ī hai is ne parvarish

hajla-e-tarik mein pai hai is ne parwarish

shama jalte hi dar-o-diwar par

le ke maTiyala sa kahida badan

jhumti sar-mast aa jati hai ye

pa-ba-jaulan chand parwanon ke pas

ghota-zan pate hi jin ko aab-shaar-e-nur mein

tez chamkili nukili aankh se

yun dekhti hai bar-bar

jaise ek sarmaya-dar

mal-o-zar ki oT se

karta hai muflis ka shikar

phir nikal jati hai ye

soz-o-gham ke shahkar

raushni ke tajdar

chand parwanon ki jaan-sozi se kya matlab ise

shama ki raushni KHayali is ke pichhe gard hai

hajla-e-tarik mein pai hai is ne parwarish
