kya jaane kis ki dhun mein raha dil-figar chand
kyā jaane kis kī dhun meñ rahā dil-figār chāñd
sañgam pe roz-o-shab ke Dhalā baar baar chāñd
aa.ī na raat bhar koī panghaT pe sāñvlī
paanī meñ chhup ke baiThā rahā be-qarār chāñd
kirnoñ kī Doriyoñ se ulajhte ho kis liye
kuchh bhī na de sakegā tujhe dāġh-dār chāñd
baazū ke dā.ere vo mahak chūḌiyāñ khanak
do-sā.e zard-chāñdnī dhīmī pukār chāñd
sūraj thā vo to shaam se pahle hī Dhal gayā
niile ufuq pe aur bhī haiñ be-shumār chāñd
har roz mere ghar meñ utartā hai kis liye
mujh ko bhī apne shahr meñ ik din utaar chāñd
bastī ke log jāniye kyā sochte rahe
bādal kī chhat pe soyā rahā sogvār chāñd
ab chāñdnī ke naam se nafrat sī ho ga.ī
'ikrām' zindagī ko lage aise chaar chāñd
kya jaane kis ki dhun mein raha dil-figar chand
sangam pe roz-o-shab ke Dhala bar bar chand
aai na raat bhar koi panghaT pe sanwli
pani mein chhup ke baiTha raha be-qarar chand
kirnon ki Doriyon se ulajhte ho kis liye
kuchh bhi na de sakega tujhe dagh-dar chand
bazu ke daere wo mahak chuDiyan khanak
do-sae zard-chandni dhimi pukar chand
suraj tha wo to sham se pahle hi Dhal gaya
nile ufuq pe aur bhi hain be-shumar chand
har roz mere ghar mein utarta hai kis liye
mujh ko bhi apne shahr mein ek din utar chand
basti ke log jaaniye kya sochte rahe
baadal ki chhat pe soya raha sogwar chand
ab chandni ke nam se nafrat si ho gai
'ikram' zindagi ko lage aise chaar chand
