    ham kisī aur sitāre se yahāñ aa.e the

    yaad rakhnā thī yahī baat magar bhuul ga.e

    ham ne jab chāñd pe rakkhā thā qadam

    yaad aayā thā hameñ us badan

    ham magar apnoñ bātoñ meñ magan

    vādī-e-yād gahrā.ī meñ utre nahīñ

    kaash us lamhe āvāz ko ham sun lete

    phir hameñ vaqt ke changul se rihā.ī hotī

    ġhaar ke paar safedī na siyāhī hotī

    zamīñ zamāna hai ye

    ham zamīñ-bos hue

    sabz rañgoñ ke sarāb

    nīlgūñ sat.h-e-āb

    ham falak-bos hue

    aur ye bhuul ga.e

    the kabhī apne badan par tere qadmoñ ke nishāñ

    sabz pattoñ ke sivā

    aur bhī rang the rangoñ se sivā

    kaun kaif thā in chīzoñ meñ

    jin tum ruuh the ham paikar the

    nuur ho saaya ho ki tārīkī ho

    laakh maiñ jism se aur ruuh se ārāsta pairāsta ho kar uTThūñ

    ban bhī jaa.e ye zamīñ

    merī karishma-gah-e-ālāt-garī

    magar aur kuchh chiiz hai

    na nuurī hai na naarī hai na ḳhāk-e-ābī

    na shamsī hai na arzī hai na hai mahtābī

    na mirrīḳh se zohra se na sartān se hai

    tere qadmoñ ke nishāñ aur kahīñ dekhe the

    jism qad shakl ye atvār ye tevar tere

    terī bū-bās libās phuul ye zevar tere

    ḳhāmushī terī ye āvāz ye chalnā terā aanā jaanā

    ye sitāroñ ġhubār

    silsila hai ye adāoñ

    ki hai jism ke pardoñ pe terī ruuh ke naġhmoñ ḳhumār

    ik na.ī shaan har roz nikhār

    aur phir sochtā huuñ

    to kuchh aur hai in chīzoñ majmūa nahīñ

    to kuchh aur hai in se bhī sivā

    in ke hone na hone bhī pāband nahīñ terā vajūd

    tere qadmoñ ke nishāñ aur kahīñ dekhe the

    tere qadmoñ se to hai aaj bhī shādāb mirā saarā vajūd

    yaad rakhne yahī baat thī ibn-e-ādam

    tum ne jab chāñd pe rakkhā thā qadam

    tum kisī aur sitāre se yahāñ aa.e the

    hum kisi aur sitare se yahan aae the

    yaad rakhna thi yahi baat magar bhul gae

    hum ne jab chand pe rakkha tha qadam

    yaad aaya tha hamein us ka badan

    hum magar apnon ki baaton mein magan

    wadi-e-yaad ki gahrai mein utre hi nahin

    kash us lamhe ki aawaz ko hum sun lete

    phir hamein waqt ke changul se rihai hoti

    ghaar ke par safedi na siyahi hoti

    zamin ka zamana hai ye

    hum zamin-bos hue

    sabz rangon ke sarab

    nilgun sath-e-ab

    hum falak-bos hue

    aur ye bhul gae

    the kabhi apne badan par tere qadmon ke nishan

    sabz patton ke siwa

    aur bhi rang the rangon se siwa

    kaun sa kaif tha in chizon mein

    jin ki tum ruh the hum paikar the

    nur ho saya ho ki tariki ho

    lakh main jism se aur ruh se aarasta pairasta ho kar uTThun

    ban bhi jae ye zamin

    meri karishma-gah-e-alat-gari

    tu magar aur hi kuchh chiz hai

    tu na nuri hai na nari hai na KHak-e-abi

    tu na shamsi hai na arzi hai na hai mahtabi

    tu na mirriKH se zohra se na sartan se hai

    tere qadmon ke nishan aur kahin dekhe the

    jism qad shakl ye atwar ye tewar tere

    teri bu-bas libas phul ye zewar tere

    KHamushi teri ye aawaz ye chalna tera aana jaana

    ye sitaron ka ghubar

    silsila hai ye adaon ka

    ki hai jism ke pardon pe teri ruh ke naghmon ka KHumar

    ek nai shan ka har roz nikhaar

    aur phir sochta hun

    tu to kuchh aur hai in chizon ka majmua nahin

    tu to kuchh aur hai in se bhi siwa

    in ke hone ka na hone ka bhi paband nahin tera wajud

    tere qadmon ke nishan aur kahin dekhe the

    tere qadmon se to hai aaj bhi shadab mera sara wajud

    yaad rakhne ki yahi baat thi ibn-e-adam

    tum ne jab chand pe rakkha tha qadam

    tum kisi aur sitare se yahan aae the
