    tasāhul chādar lapeTe hue qissa-ḳhvānī ik shaam thī

    ham vahāñ apnī din bhar is jān-levā thakan se

    nabard-āzmā

    ḳhuub qahvoñ pe qahve ke piyāle luñDhāte rahe

    aur apne buland-bāñg dāvoñ se aur qahqahoñ se

    kahīñ ghoñsloñ meñ chhupe thak ke so.e hue

    nīm-jāñ tā.eroñ ko jagāte rahe

    aur guzre zamāne ke pīroñ faqīroñ koī na ka.ī karāmat sunāte rahe

    (kis tarah sāhibān-e-karāmāt barzaḳh to barzaḳh

    shar-añgez zindoñ rūheñ bulāne pe qādir

    sabhī ko bad-āmāliyoñ se bachāte rahe)

    par jo ye sab nahī mānte the

    vo nisvār tez meñ base

    iiñT gaare ke ik nīm-puḳhta thaḌe par

    bar-afroḳhta ho ke inkār meñ sar hilāte rahe

    haañ magar vo ki jin ke laboñ par

    charas aur gāñje uudī tah

    mustaqil jam ga.ī thī

    faqat muskurāte rahe

    aur sañgat meñ maujūd jo ''bachcha-ḳhush'' the

    vo har aate jaate trahdār kam-umr laḌke ko

    ā.ankhoñ ā.ankhoñ meñ paate rahe

    phir sab aapas meñ mil kar

    karachi se kundūz tak pesha kartī huī kasbiyoñ

    hijḌoñ aur louñDoñ ke

    pur-kaif qisse sunāte rahe

    gudgudāte rahe

    dil lubhāte rahe

    tasahul ki chadar lapeTe hue qissa-KHwani ek sham thi

    hum wahan apni din bhar ki is jaan-lewa thakan se

    nabard-azma

    KHub qahwon pe qahwe ke piyale lunDhate rahe

    aur apne buland-bang dawon se aur qahqahon se

    kahin ghonslon mein chhupe thak ke soe hue

    nim-jaan taeron ko jagate rahe

    aur guzre zamane ke piron faqiron ki koi na kai karamat sunate rahe

    (kis tarah sahiban-e-karamat barzaKH to barzaKH

    shar-angez zindon ki ruhen bulane pe qadir

    sabhi ko bad-amaliyon se bachate rahe)

    par jo ye sab nahi mante the

    wo niswar ki tez bu mein base

    inT gare ke ek nim-puKHta thaDe par

    bar-afroKHta ho ke inkar mein sar hilate rahe

    han magar wo ki jin ke labon par

    charas aur ganje ki udi si tah

    mustaqil jam gai thi

    faqat muskuraate rahe

    aur sangat mein maujud jo bachcha-KHush the

    wo har aate jate trahdar kam-umr laDke ko

    aaankhon hi aaankhon mein pate rahe

    phir sab aapas mein mil kar

    karachi se kunduz tak pesha karti hui kasbiyon

    hijDon aur lounDon ke

    pur-kaif qisse sunate rahe

    gudgudate rahe

    dil lubhate rahe
