ek taraf halwai tha
ek taraf halvā.ī thā
dūsrī taraf naa.ī thā
chhā.e hue tum the kahīñ
kahīñ tumhārā bhaa.ī thā
kanjūsoñ kā bādshāh
kaisā hātim-tā.ī thā
dil ke tarke meñ mirā
hissa ek tihā.ī thā
sahrā hai ab jis jagah
ye ḳhitta dariyā.ī thā
ham bhī the dil-pheñk se
vo bhī ik harjā.ī thā
chhoḌ ke rusvā huuñ 'zafar'
pesha jo ābā.ī thā
ek taraf halwai tha
dusri taraf nai tha
chhae hue tum the kahin
kahin tumhaara bhai tha
kanjuson ka baadshah
kaisa hatim-tai tha
dil ke tarke mein mera
hissa ek tihai tha
sahra hai ab jis jagah
ye KHitta dariyai tha
hum bhi the dil-phenk se
wo bhi ek harjai tha
chhoD ke ruswa hun 'zafar'
pesha jo aabai tha
