sunaa hai log use aaNkh bhar ke dekhate hain
so us ke shahar mein kuchh din Thahar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai rabt hai us ko Kharaab haalo.n se
so apane aap ko barbaad karake dekhate hain
sunaa hai dard kii gaahak hai chashm-e-naazuk us kii
so ham bhii us kii galii se guzar kar dekhate hain
sunaa hai us ko bhii hai sher-o-shaayarii se shagaf
so ham bhii mojaze apane hunar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai bole to baaton se phuul jhaDate hain
ye baat hai to chalo baat kar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai raat use chaa.Nd takataa rahataa hai
sitaare baam-e-falak se utar kar dekhate hain
sunaa hai hashr hain us kii Gazaal sii aaNkhen
sunaa hai us ko hiran dasht bhar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai din ko use titaliyaaN sataatii hain
sunaa hai raat ko jugnuu Thahar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai raat se baDh kar hain kaakulen us kii
sunaa hai shaam ko saaye guzar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai us kii siyaah chashmagii qayaamat hai
so us ko surmaafarosh aaNkh bhar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai us ke labon se gulaab jalate hain
so ham bahaar par ilzaam dhar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai aa_iinaa tamasaal hai jabiin us kaa
jo saadaa dil hain ban saNvar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai jab se hamaa_il hain us kii gardan mein
mizaaj aur hii laal-o-gauhar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai chashm-e-tasavvur se dasht-e-imkaan mein
palang zaave us kii kamar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai us ke badan ke taraash aise hain
ke phuul apanii qabaaye.N katar ke dekhate hain
vo sarv-qad hai magar be-gul-e-muraad nahiin
ke us shajar pe shaguufe samar ke dekhate hain
bas ek nigaah se luTataa hai qaafilaa dil kaa
so rah_ravaan-e-tamannaa bhii Dar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai us ke shabistaan se muttasil hai bahisht
makiin udhar ke bhii jalve idhar ke dekhate hain
ruke to gardishen us kaa tavaaf karatii hain
chale to us ko zamaane Thahar ke dekhate hain
kise nasiib ke be-pairahan use dekhe
kabhii kabhii dar-o-diivaar ghar ke dekhate hain
kahaaniyaaN hiin sahii sab mubaalaGe hii sahii
agar vo Khvaab hai taabiir kar ke dekhate hain
ab us ke shahar mein Thaharen ki kuuch kar jaayeN
'Faraz' aao sitaare safar ke dekhate hain
so us ke shahar mein kuchh din Thahar ke dekhate hain
sunaa hai rabt hai us ko Kharaab haalo.n se
