yun to is shahr mein ek ek se siwa aurat hai
yuuñ to is shahr meñ ek ik se sivā 'aurat hai
dil meñ ghar karke jo baiThī hai balā 'aurat hai
zinda rahne kī kashish zindagī karne kī lagan
aur to kyā hai yahī maut hai yā 'aurat hai
saat pardoñ meñ bhī mastūr nahīñ hai lekin
kabhī khultī bhī nahīñ hai ki vo kyā 'aurat hai
shā'irī se hamīñ kuchh kaam chalā.e hue haiñ
ye 'afīfa to vagarna yuñhī nā-'aurat hai
yun to is shahr mein ek ek se siwa 'aurat hai
dil mein ghar karke jo baiThi hai bala 'aurat hai
zinda rahne ki kashish zindagi karne ki lagan
aur to kya hai yahi maut hai ya 'aurat hai
sat pardon mein bhi mastur nahin hai lekin
kabhi khulti bhi nahin hai ki wo kya 'aurat hai
sha'iri se hamin kuchh kaam chalae hue hain
ye 'afifa to wagarna yunhi na-'aurat hai
