hijraton ka dukh

nayā purānā

ho koī mausam

talāsh-e-jā-e-amāñ rahegī

bahut dinoñ tak

diloñ kī sarhad par

phir tashaddud kī jang hogī

usuul kī dhajjiyāñ uḌeñgī

galī galī meñ

qabīh lamhoñ ke devtāoñ kā raqs hogā

bahut dinoñ tak

fazā meñ gard-o-ġhubār hogā

dhuāñ dhuāñ zindagī kī rāhoñ meñ

ḳhār-o-ḳhas kā hisār hogā

bahut dinoñ tak

lahū lahū āsmān hogā

shajar shajar be-zabān hogā

vo phuul

jin kī ragoñ meñ apnā lahū hai shāmil

badalte mausam kā saath deñge

hamāre sab hī harīf hoñge

bagūle maġhrib se uTh rahe haiñ

phir ek taaza sā zaḳhm hogā

naya purana

ho koi mausam

talash-e-ja-e-aman rahegi

bahut dinon tak

dilon ki sarhad par

phir tashaddud ki jang hogi

usul ki dhajjiyan uDengi

gali gali mein

qabih lamhon ke dewtaon ka raqs hoga

bahut dinon tak

faza mein gard-o-ghubar hoga

dhuan dhuan zindagi ki rahon mein

KHar-o-KHas ka hisar hoga

bahut dinon tak

lahu lahu aasman hoga

shajar shajar be-zaban hoga

wo phul

jin ki ragon mein apna lahu hai shamil

badalte mausam ka sath denge

hamare sab hi harif honge

bagule maghrib se uTh rahe hain

phir ek taza sa zaKHm hoga
