ye kyā tahrīr pāgal likh rahā hai
har ik pyāse ko bādal likh rahā hai

na ro gustāḳh beTe ke amal par
tirā guzrā huā kal likh rahā hai

paḌho har mauj aayat kī tarah hai
vo dariyā par musalsal likh rahā hai

thame paanī ko tabdīlī mubārak
havā kā haath halchal likh rahā hai

tujhe chhūnā nirālā tajraba thā
vo jhūTā hai jo maḳhmal likh rahā hai

banā kar shahr kā naqsha vo bachcha
baḌe harfoñ meñ jañgal likh rahā hai

ḳhudā-e-amn jo kahtā hai ḳhud ko
zamīñ par ḳhud hī maqtal likh rahā hai

ye kya tahrir pagal likh raha hai
har ek pyase ko baadal likh raha hai

na ro gustaKH beTe ke amal par
tera guzra hua kal likh raha hai

paDho har mauj aayat ki tarah hai
wo dariya par musalsal likh raha hai

thame pani ko tabdili mubarak
hawa ka hath halchal likh raha hai

tujhe chhuna nirala tajraba tha
wo jhuTa hai jo maKHmal likh raha hai

bana kar shahr ka naqsha wo bachcha
baDe harfon mein jangal likh raha hai

KHuda-e-amn jo kahta hai KHud ko
zamin par KHud hi maqtal likh raha hai
