Sar uTha Kar Na Kabhi Dekha Kahan baiThe The

Hasan Kamal

sar uTha kar na kabhi dekha kahan baiThe the

girti divar ka saaya tha jahan baiThe the

sab the masruf andheron ki ḳharidari men

ham saja.e hue sham.on ki dukan baiThe the

yahi shohrat ka sabab honge ye ma.alum na tha

ham chhupa.e hue zaḳhmon ke nishan baiThe the

log to bujhte charaghon ke dhuen se ḳhush the

ham hi be-kar jala.e hue jaan baiThe the

mai-kada aur bhi tanha.i ka saman nikla

ham ki tanha.i se tang aa ke yahan baiThe the
