dariya ho ya pahaD ho Takrana chahiye
dariyā ho yā pahāḌ ho Takrānā chāhiye
jab tak na saañs TuuTe jiye jaanā chāhiye
yuuñ to qadam qadam pe hai dīvār sāmne
koī na ho to ḳhud se ulajh jaanā chāhiye
jhuktī huī nazar ho ki simTā huā badan
har ras-bharī ghaTā ko baras jaanā chāhiye
chaurāhe baaġh buildingeñ sab shahr to nahīñ
kuchh aise vaise logoñ se yārānā chāhiye
apnī talāsh apnī nazar apnā tajraba
rasta ho chāhe saaf bhaTak jaanā chāhiye
chup chup makān rāste gum-sum niDhāl vaqt
is shahr ke liye koī dīvānā chāhiye
bijlī kā qumquma na ho kaalā dhuāñ to ho
ye bhī agar nahīñ ho to bujh jaanā chāhiye
dariya ho ya pahaD ho Takrana chahiye
jab tak na sans TuTe jiye jaana chahiye
yun to qadam qadam pe hai diwar samne
koi na ho to KHud se ulajh jaana chahiye
jhukti hui nazar ho ki simTa hua badan
har ras-bhari ghaTa ko baras jaana chahiye
chaurahe bagh buildingen sab shahr to nahin
kuchh aise waise logon se yarana chahiye
apni talash apni nazar apna tajraba
rasta ho chahe saf bhaTak jaana chahiye
chup chup makan raste gum-sum niDhaal waqt
is shahr ke liye koi diwana chahiye
bijli ka qumquma na ho kala dhuan to ho
ye bhi agar nahin ho to bujh jaana chahiye
