dar-o-dīvār pe ik saaya paḌā hai dekho
mere raste meñ koī jaise khaḌā hai dekho
zarra-e-ḳhāk ko sar par liye phirtī hai havā
aur patthar ki zamīñ meñ hī gaḌā hai dekho
is qadar bhiiḌ hai raste meñ ki chalnā hai muhāl
aur bādal ki abhī sar pe khaḌā hai dekho
apnī hī zaat ke saa.e meñ chhupā baiThā huuñ
ki mirā saaya bhī to mujh se baḌā hai dekho
mauj-e-dariyā ko samundar se mafar mushkil hai
lauT bhī aao ki ye rasta kaḌā hai dekho
koī to aa.e mujhe aa ke bachā.e is se
merī dahlīz pe ik shaḳhs khaḌā hai dekho
sar pe tūfān bhī hai sāmne girdāb bhī hai
merī himmat ki vahī kachchā ghaḌā hai dekho
sar kaTā kar bhī khaḌā huuñ sar-e-maidāñ aḳhtar
is tarah jañg yahāñ kaun laḌā hai dekho
