    kaisī girhoñ meñ tār-e-nafas hai ye uljhā huā

    saarī peshāniyoñ par lakīroñ phailā huā jaal hai

    is meñ jakḌī ga.ī

    muskurāhaT kahīñ

    dhajjiyāñ chaar atrāf uḌne lagīñ

    kis malbūs hai

    har nagar har galī

    ḳhauf ḳhauf hai

    aglī baaī hai kis

    kisī ko patā tak nahīñ

    muñh chhupā.e hue

    ta.ane, dushnām sahte haiñ jo ajnabī

    apne to nahīñ

    chār-sū hai rageñ kāTtī zamharīrī huā

    sard-mehrī ke barfāb mausam meñ

    ThiThure hue hoñT haiñ

    aur zabāñ rageñ bhī tashannuj se khichne lagīñ

    kaisā āseb-e-vahshat hai

    kyuuñ sar se Taltā nahīñ

    āyateñ bhī hameñ bhuul jaane lagīñ

    jibra.īl-e-amīñ

    sūratunnās aur al-falaq paḌh ke phūñko

    diloñ meñ

    aqīdoñ girheñ paḌī haiñ

    ye ham se to khultī nahīñ!

    kaisi girhon mein tar-e-nafas hai ye uljha hua

    sari peshaniyon par lakiron ka phaila hua jal hai

    is mein jakDi gai

    muskurahaT kahin

    dhajjiyan chaar atraf uDne lagin

    kis ka malbus hai

    har nagar har gali

    KHauf hi KHauf hai

    agli bai hai kis ki

    kisi ko pata tak nahin

    munh chhupae hue

    tane, dushnam sahte hain jo ajnabi

    apne hi to nahin

    chaar-su hai ragen kaTti zamhariri hua

    sard-mehri ke barfab mausam mein

    ThiThure hue honT hain

    aur zaban ki ragen bhi tashannuj se khichne lagin

    kaisa aaseb-e-wahshat hai

    kyun sar se Talta nahin

    aayaten bhi hamein bhul jaane lagin

    jibrail-e-amin

    suratunnas aur al-falaq paDh ke phunko

    dilon mein

    aqidon ki girhen paDi hain

    ye hum se to khulti nahin!
