main phul jaisi kyon hui
ajiib āñdhiyāñ chalīñ
havā.eñ tez-tar huiiñ
duā.eñ be-asar huiiñ
hasīn jāñ-gudāz phuul
oḌh kar vo saarī dhuul
shāḳh se chimaT ga.e
ḳhauf se lipaT ga.e
magar vo shāḳh jhuk ga.ī
zamīñ pe aa ke ruk ga.ī
phuul shāḳh se jhaḌe
zamīñ pe aise gir paḌe
ki barg barg rang rang
āñdhiyoñ meñ kho ga.e
mile kuchh aise ḳhaak meñ
ki ḳhud hī ḳhaak ho ga.e
magar ye nannhī ghaas jo
palī baḌhī hai dhuul meñ
zamīn se lipaT ke
muskurā rahī hai dhuul meñ
vo hañs ke jaise kah rahī ho bībiyo
yahī hai zindagī kā gur samajh sako to sochiyo
koī kuchal bhī de to sar uThā ke phir jiyo
yahāñ khaḌī maiñ sochtī thī
sochtī huuñ bas yahī
maiñ phuul jaisī kyoñ huī
maiñ ghaas jaisī kyoñ nahīñ
ajib aandhiyan chalin
hawaen tez-tar huin
duaen be-asar huin
hasin jaan-gudaz phul
oDh kar wo sari dhul
shaKH se chimaT gae
KHauf se lipaT gae
magar wo shaKH jhuk gai
zamin pe aa ke ruk gai
phul shaKH se jhaDe
zamin pe aise gir paDe
ki barg barg rang rang
aandhiyon mein kho gae
mile kuchh aise KHak mein
ki KHud hi KHak ho gae
magar ye nannhi ghas jo
pali baDhi hai dhul mein
zamin se lipaT ke
muskura rahi hai dhul mein
wo hans ke jaise kah rahi ho bibiyo
yahi hai zindagi ka gur samajh sako to sochiyo
koi kuchal bhi de to sar uTha ke phir jiyo
yahan khaDi main sochti thi
sochti hun bas yahi
main phul jaisi kyon hui
main ghas jaisi kyon nahin
