    dhuñdlakoñ ke bārīk dhāgoñ meñ lipTī huī

    mutma.in be-ḳhabar

    maiñ ne dekhā vo mujh par jhukī thī

    vo chashm-e-hasīñ jis ke har ang meñ māmtā thī

    mujhe yuuñ lagā thā vo chashm-e-hasīñ to mujhe

    bas mujhe ghūrtī hai

    kisī aur ko dekhne use na to fursat

    na himmat na ḳhvāhish

    faqat markaz-e-hast ko dekhtī hai

    mujhe dekhtī hai

    maiñ us aañkh jhiil meñ tairte sabz bajre

    darzoñ se riste hue garm sayyāl sone būñdoñ

    ke pīchhe lapaktā rahā jugnuoñ se mujhe un dinoñ kaisī raġhbat thī

    maiñ jalte-bujhte hue paikaroñ ko pakaḌ kar

    unheñ apne tan par sajāne ḳhvāhish meñ

    kis darja bebas huā thā

    ki maiñ ḳhud bhī shāyad

    chamakte hue jugnuoñ ke samundar meñ

    ik jaltā bujhtā jugnū thā

    apne ham-zād ko DhūñDhtā thā

    zamāna vo maktab se bhāgā huā vahshī laḌkā

    jo mere ta.āqub meñ gir gir ke pāgal huā thā

    use dhun agar thī to bas is qadar thī

    ki vo apnī muTThī meñ mujh ko giraftār kar ke dikhā.e

    zamān-o-makāñ hadoñ meñ

    kisī saaf taḳhtī ke chehre pe likkhe

    siyāhī ke be-nām nuqte pe rukne ḳhūgar banā.e

    magar maiñ to us aañkh ke āb-e-ġham shanāvar

    zamāne muTThī meñ aane se bezār thā

    jāntā thā ki zālim zamāna to vahshī parinde sūrat

    gurasna nigāhoñ ke ġhurfoñ se mujh ko hamesha takegā

    maiñ is baat se āshnā thā

    ki maiñ gar rukā

    to mujhe aañkh se garm aañsū sūrat Tapaknā paḌegā

    kisī sabz motī ThanDī lahad meñ utarnā paḌegā

    phir ek roz

    vahshī parinde pahlī jhapaT mujh pe nāzil huī

    aañkh rone lagī

    aur maiñ zaḳhm ko chāTtā

    jhiil ke pāniyoñ meñ sisaktā phirā

    aañkh rotī rahī

    har jhapaT par vo aañsū ke qatroñ meñ Dhal kar

    kināroñ se bāhar nikal kar bikhartī huī

    aur phir ek din

    jhiil paanī ke amrit se ḳhālī huī

    jalne bujhne ke aalam se āzād ho kar

    zamān-o-makān hadoñ meñ

    kisī saaf taḳhtī ke chehre pe dhabba banī

    aur maiñ

    niile ākāsh par chīḳhte aur hañste hue us parinde

    āñkhoñ meñ apnī tasvīr ko dekh kar muskurāyā

    siyāhī ke jaadū se bāhar nikal kar maiñ apne irfān se jagmagāyā

    zamāna mujhe dekh kar mujh pe jhapTā

    magar maiñ to ik jhiil thā mere andar zamānoñ ke bajre the

    bajroñ se sayyāl sone kirneñ nikalne lagī thiiñ

    zamāna mujhe apne panje meñ lene ko jhapTā magar ek pal meñ

    vo ḳhud merī muTThī meñ mahbūs thā

    ek jugnū jise maiñ ne māthe pe qashqa banā kar lagāyā

    jise maiñ ne motī ThanDī lahad meñ utārā

    jise maiñ ne ThanDī lahad ke kināre katba banāyā

    dhundlakon ke barik dhagon mein lipTi hui

    mutmain be-KHabar

    main ne dekha wo mujh par jhuki thi

    wo chashm-e-hasin jis ke har ang mein mamta thi

    mujhe yun laga tha wo chashm-e-hasin to mujhe

    bas mujhe ghurti hai

    kisi aur ko dekhne ki use na to fursat

    na himmat na KHwahish

    faqat markaz-e-hast ko dekhti hai

    mujhe dekhti hai

    main us aankh ki jhil mein tairte sabz bajre

    ki darzon se riste hue garm sayyal sone ki bundon

    ke pichhe lapakta raha jugnuon se mujhe un dinon kaisi raghbat thi

    main jalte-bujhte hue paikaron ko pakaD kar

    unhen apne tan par sajaane ki KHwahish mein

    kis darja bebas hua tha

    ki main KHud bhi shayad

    chamakte hue jugnuon ke samundar mein

    ek jalta bujhta sa jugnu tha

    apne hi ham-zad ko DhunDhta tha

    zamana wo maktab se bhaga hua wahshi laDka

    jo mere taaqub mein gir gir ke pagal hua tha

    use dhun agar thi to bas is qadar thi

    ki wo apni muTThi mein mujh ko giraftar kar ke dikhae

    zaman-o-makan ki hadon mein

    kisi saf taKHti ke chehre pe likkhe

    siyahi ke be-nam nuqte pe rukne ka KHugar banae

    magar main to us aankh ke aab-e-gham ka shanawar

    zamane ki muTThi mein aane se bezar tha

    jaanta tha ki zalim zamana to wahshi parinde ki surat

    gurasna nigahon ke ghurfon se mujh ko hamesha takega

    main is baat se aashna tha

    ki main gar ruka

    to mujhe aankh se garm aansu ki surat Tapakna paDega

    kisi sabz moti ki ThanDi lahad mein utarna paDega

    phir ek roz

    wahshi parinde ki pahli jhapaT mujh pe nazil hui

    aankh rone lagi

    aur main zaKHm ko chaTta

    jhil ke paniyon mein sisakta phira

    aankh roti rahi

    har jhapaT par wo aansu ke qatron mein Dhal kar

    kinaron se bahar nikal kar bikharti hui

    aur phir ek din

    jhil pani ke amrit se KHali hui

    jalne bujhne ke aalam se aazad ho kar

    zaman-o-makan ki hadon mein

    kisi saf taKHti ke chehre pe dhabba bani

    aur main

    nile aakash par chiKHte aur hanste hue us parinde

    ki aankhon mein apni hi taswir ko dekh kar muskuraya

    siyahi ke jadu se bahar nikal kar main apne hi irfan se jagmagaya

    zamana mujhe dekh kar mujh pe jhapTa

    magar main to ek jhil tha mere andar zamanon ke bajre the

    bajron se sayyal sone ki kirnen nikalne lagi thin

    zamana mujhe apne panje mein lene ko jhapTa magar ek pal mein

    wo KHud meri muTThi mein mahbus tha

    ek jugnu jise main ne mathe pe qashqa bana kar lagaya

    jise main ne moti ki ThanDi lahad mein utara

    jise main ne ThanDi lahad ke kinare ka katba banaya
