vo jo dīvār-e-āshnā.ī thī
apnī hī zaat kī ikaa.ī thī
maiñ sar-e-dasht-e-jāñ thā āvāra
aur ghar meñ bahār aa.ī thī
maile kapḌoñ kā apnā rañg bhī thā
phir bhī qismat meñ jag-hañsā.ī thī
ab to āñkhoñ meñ apnā chehra hai
kabhī shīshe se āshnā.ī thī
apnī hī zaat meñ thā maiñ mahfūz
aur phir ḳhud hī se laḌā.ī thī
apnī āvāz se bhī Dartā thā
haa.e kyā chiiz āshnā.ī thī
zindagī gard gard thī 'aḳhtar'
jaane luT kar kahāñ se aa.ī thī
