shahr-e-viran ke aaseb ka sae

magar
shahr-e-viran

tumhaare gharon maqbaron ki munderon chhaton par
jo budhe parindon ki sargoshiyan hain

bhatakti hain din raat mere sirhane
koi ajnabi

ghair-manus aawaz kahti hai
khuda jab zaminon pe utra tha

budhe parindon ko maut aa gai thi
jabhi shahr-e-viran ki behad purani

fasilon mein gungi daraden padi thin
daraden jo khinchen nason se hararat

aur aise mein shahr-e-hazin ke sabhi
basiyon ne panah mang li thi

daradon ke shar se
purane shahr se

nae mausamon ki
hararat nason mein palat aai

kirnon ne suraj ko paida kiya
aur suraj ne rangon ko taqsim kar ke

jo naqshe jane
un se chehre bane

chehron ne gungi daradon ko aawaz di
aur sajae bade hi jatan se

gali aur mahalle
khurach kar nishan sare mazi ke tere badan se

namak-pash chehron ne tiswe bahae
masajid madaris mein tarikh-namon ke pahre bithae

magar shahr-e-viran
main wo shor bakht hun

jo budhe parindon ki sargoshiyon mein
tumhaare batn ki khamushi sun rahi hun

ranga-rang pardon ke pichhe ki viraniyan
chun rahi hun
