mire chāroñ taraf ek āhanī dīvār kyuuñ hai
agar sachchā huuñ maiñ sach kā muqaddar haar kyuuñ hai

nishāt-o-imbisāt-o-shādmānī ziist Thahrī
to batlā.e koī jiinā mujhe āzār kyuuñ hai

masāfat zindagī hai aur duniyā ik sarā.e
to is tamsīl meñ tūfān kā kirdār kyuuñ hai

jahāñ sach kī pazīrā.ī ke da.avedār haiñ sab
usī bazm-e-suḳhan meñ bolnā dushvār kyuuñ hai

yaqīnan hādse bhī juzv-e-ḳhās-e-zindagī haiñ
hamārā shahr hī in se magar do-chār kyuuñ hai

mirī rāhoñ meñ jab hote nahīñ kāñTe 'tasavvur'
maiñ Dar kar sochtā huuñ rāsta hamvār kyuuñ hai

mere chaaron taraf ek aahani diwar kyun hai
agar sachcha hun main sach ka muqaddar haar kyun hai

nishat-o-imbisat-o-shadmani zist Thahri
to batlae koi jina mujhe aazar kyun hai

masafat zindagi hai aur duniya ek sarae
to is tamsil mein tufan ka kirdar kyun hai

jahan sach ki pazirai ke dawedar hain sab
usi bazm-e-suKHan mein bolna dushwar kyun hai

yaqinan hadse bhi juzw-e-KHas-e-zindagi hain
hamara shahr hi in se magar do-chaar kyun hai

meri rahon mein jab hote nahin kanTe 'tasawwur'
main Dar kar sochta hun rasta hamwar kyun hai
