tira mizaj takabbur ka shaḳhsana tha
ta.alluqat ka manzar badal hi jaana tha
ga.e the ham bhi faqat rasm hi nibhane ko
aur us ka tarz-e-amal bhi muḳhasamana tha
kisi ke unche dar-o-bam mohtaram the magar
hamen hava ke liye rasta banana tha
ye ḳhaak bughz-o-adavat se paak rakhni thi
zamin-e-dil pe shajar pyaar ka ugana tha
main janta huun use mujh pe e’tibar na tha
agarche mere gavahon men ik zamana tha
ye tu ne tark-e-marasim ki baat kyon chheḌi
hamen to yuun bhi tira shahar chhoḌ jaana tha
ka.i charagh munDeron pe jal bujhe ‘anvar’
use na aana tha shayad use na aana tha
