sahrā ko dariyā samjhā thā
maiñ bhī tujh ko kyā samjhā thā
haath chhuḌā kar jaane vaale
maiñ tujh ko apnā samjhā thā
phir jā.ūñgā apnī zabāñ se
kyā mujh ko aisā samjhā thā
itnī aañkh to mujh meñ bhī thī
duniyā ko duniyā samjhā thā
maiñ ne tujh ko manzil jaanā
tū mujh ko rasta samjhā thā
be-ā.īna shahr ne mujh ko
ḳhud sā be-chehrā samjhā thā
kyā se kyā niklā hai, tū bhī
maiñ tujh ko kaisā samjhā thā
