shama ki lau tez itni thi dhuan hona hi tha
sham.a kī lau tez itnī thī dhuāñ honā hī thā
fā.ede ke kaam meñ kuchh to ziyāñ honā hī thā
kis ko ḳhush aatī hamārī chhat kī sāya-afganī
ghar banāyā thā to phir be-ḳhānamāñ honā hī thā
ham natīje ke liye tā-zindagī baiThe rahe
ye kahāñ samjhe ki pahle imtihāñ honā hī thā
vādi-e-gul se nikalnā ek majbūrī sahī
shahr-e-nā-pursāñ meñ ham ko rā.egāñ honā hī thā
shama ki lau tez itni thi dhuan hona hi tha
faede ke kaam mein kuchh to ziyan hona hi tha
kis ko KHush aati hamari chhat ki saya-afgani
ghar banaya tha to phir be-KHanaman hona hi tha
hum natije ke liye ta-zindagi baiThe rahe
ye kahan samjhe ki pahle imtihan hona hi tha
wadi-e-gul se nikalna ek majburi sahi
shahr-e-na-pursan mein hum ko raegan hona hi tha
