    maiñ ik ma.asūm shahrī thā

    sharāfat se sabhī ke saath rahtā thā

    mohazzab taur se jiitā thā

    sab ke kaam aatā thā

    kabhī maiñ ne kisī dil nahīñ toḌā

    kisī sar nahīñ phoḌā

    kisī tarkash se koī tiir kyā tinkā nahīñ chhoḌā

    kisī piiTh meñ ḳhanjar nahīñ bhoñkā

    kisī ke jism par bārūd golā nahīñ pheñkā

    kisī ko aag meñ maiñ ne nahīñ jhoñkā

    kisī haq nahīñ maarā

    kisī zar nahīñ luuTā

    koī ḳhirman nahīñ phūñkā

    kisī building kisī gaaḌī kisī mahfil meñ koī bam nahīñ rakkhā

    mire hāthoñ kisī ghar nahīñ ujḌā

    kisī dar nahīñ ukhḌā

    koī kumba nahīñ bikhrā

    koī māthā nahīñ sikuḌā

    kisī raah meñ roḌā nahīñ aTkā

    kisī ke kaam meñ maiñ ne kabhī raḳhna nahīñ Daalā

    kisī ke vāste dil meñ kabhī kiina nahīñ paalā

    koī farmān hākim kabhī maiñ ne nahīñ Taalā

    koī gherā nahīñ lāñghā

    koī āñgan nahīñ phāñdā

    magar phir bhī qayāmat mujh pe TuuTī hai

    ajab ġhārat-garī qahr barsā hai

    ajab saffāk ḳhanjar dil meñ utrā hai

    ki merī ruuh ab tak tilmilātī hai

    ki merā zehn ab bhī jhunjhunātā hai

    ki merī saañs ab bhī laḌkhaḌātī hai

    samajh meñ kuchh nahīñ aatā

    ki maiñ ne kyā bigāḌā hai

    mire kis jurm mujh ko milī hai

    ye sazā āḳhir

    ye gutthī kis tarah kholūñ

    sabab kis se yahāñ pūchhūñ

    kidhar jā.ūñ

    kise rokūñ

    sabhī chehre yahāñ patthar

    sabhī āñkheñ yahāñ patthar

    basārat meñ bharā patthar

    samā.at meñ basā patthar

    zabānoñ meñ gaḌā patthar

    adālat meñ khaḌā patthar

    har ik qānūn meñ patthar

    har ik aa.iin meñ patthar

    har ik insāf meñ patthar

    har ik āvāz meñ patthar

    har ik ehsās meñ patthar

    ye patthar yug ke patthar se bhī bhārī hai

    nagīne tarah tarshā huā hai

    aur hiire anī tarah us tez nokeñ haiñ

    bahut shaffāf hai ye aur is meñ ik tamaddun hai

    maiñ is patthar se sar phoḌūñ

    ki apnī zindagī chhoḌūñ

    ki apnā rāsta moḌūñ

    ki ban jā.ūñ maiñ ḳhud patthar

    samajh meñ kuchh nahīñ aatā

    main ek masum shahri tha

    sharafat se sabhi ke sath rahta tha

    mohazzab taur se jita tha

    sab ke kaam aata tha

    kabhi main ne kisi ka dil nahin toDa

    kisi ka sar nahin phoDa

    kisi tarkash se koi tir kya tinka nahin chhoDa

    kisi ki piTh mein KHanjar nahin bhonka

    kisi ke jism par barud ka gola nahin phenka

    kisi ko aag mein main ne nahin jhonka

    kisi ka haq nahin mara

    kisi ka zar nahin luTa

    koi KHirman nahin phunka

    kisi building kisi gaDi kisi mahfil mein koi bam nahin rakkha

    mere hathon kisi ka ghar nahin ujDa

    kisi ka dar nahin ukhDa

    koi kumba nahin bikhra

    koi matha nahin sikuDa

    kisi ki rah mein roDa nahin aTka

    kisi ke kaam mein main ne kabhi raKHna nahin Dala

    kisi ke waste dil mein kabhi kina nahin pala

    koi farman hakim ka kabhi main ne nahin Tala

    koi ghera nahin langha

    koi aangan nahin phanda

    magar phir bhi qayamat mujh pe TuTi hai

    ajab ghaarat-gari ka qahr barsa hai

    ajab saffak KHanjar dil mein utra hai

    ki meri ruh ab tak tilmilati hai

    ki mera zehn ab bhi jhunjhunata hai

    ki meri sans ab bhi laDkhaDati hai

    samajh mein kuchh nahin aata

    ki main ne kya bigaDa hai

    mere kis jurm ki mujh ko mili hai

    ye saza aaKHir

    ye gutthi kis tarah kholun

    sabab kis se yahan puchhun

    kidhar jaun

    kise rokun

    sabhi chehre yahan patthar

    sabhi aankhen yahan patthar

    basarat mein bhara patthar

    samaat mein basa patthar

    zabanon mein gaDa patthar

    adalat mein khaDa patthar

    har ek qanun mein patthar

    har ek aain mein patthar

    har ek insaf mein patthar

    har ek aawaz mein patthar

    har ek ehsas mein patthar

    ye patthar yug ke patthar se bhi bhaari hai

    nagine ki tarah tarsha hua hai

    aur hire ki ani ki tarah us ki tez noken hain

    bahut shaffaf hai ye aur is mein ek tamaddun hai

    main is patthar se sar phoDun

    ki apni zindagi chhoDun

    ki apna rasta moDun

    ki ban jaun main KHud patthar

    samajh mein kuchh nahin aata
