Dar ke kisii se chhup jaataa hai jaise saa.Np Khazaane me.n
zar ke zor se zi.ndaa hai.n sab Khaak ke is viiraane me.n

[zar = gold]


jaise rasm adaa karate ho.n shaharo.n kii aabaadii me.n
subah ko ghar se duur nikal kar shaam ko vaapis aane me.n

[rasm = custom/tradition; vaapis = return]

niile rang me.n Duubii aa.Nkhe.n khulii pa.Dii thii.n sabze par
aks pa.Daa thaa aasmaan kaa shaayad is paimaane me.n

[sabze = green grass/field; aks = reflection]


dil kuchh aur bhii sard huaa hai shaam-e-shahar kii raunaq me.n
kitanii ziyaa be-suud ga_ii hai shiishe ke lafz jalaane me.n


[raunaq = light/brightness; ziyaa = light; be-suud = futile]


mai.n to "Munir" aa_iine me.n Khud ko tak kar hairaan huaa
ye cheharaa kuchh aur tarah thaa pahale kisii zamaane me.n
