phirate huye kisii kii nazar dekhate rahe
dil Kuun ho rahaa thaa magar dekhate rahe

kuchh din ye bhii rang rahaa intazaar me.n
aa.nkh uTh ga_ii jidhar bas udhar dekhate rahe

jab aashiyaa.N ki yaad asiirii me.n aa ga_ii
u.Date huye havaa me.n sharar dekhate rahe

%[asiirii = prison; sharar = spark]

sunate raho ki dekh liyaa jalvaa behijaab
apanaa hii sab fareb-e-nazar dekhate rahe

%[behijaab = uncovered; fareb = deception]

is vaaste ki aur ghaTe mol jins kaa
mataluub un ko dil thaa jigar dekhate rahe

%[mataluub = longed for]

saamaan-e-sad-hazaar tamaashaa thii beKudii
aa.Nkhe.n thii band aur "Asar" dekhate rahe
