be-karan dariya hun gham ka aur tughyani mein hun
be-karāñ dariyā huuñ ġham kā aur tuġhyānī meñ huuñ
sab hadeñ haiñ phir bhī qaa.em kab se hairānī meñ huuñ
shab kī tanhā.ī meñ mujh ko aisā lagtā hai kabhī
maiñ huuñ rūh-e-zindagī go paikar-e-fānī meñ huuñ
jagmagātī mahfil-e-aflāk merā aks-e-zāt
lau maiñ huuñ anjum kī maiñ sūraj kī tābānī meñ huuñ
subh-gāhāñ dasht o gulshan meñ nasīm-e-narm-mauj
biich dariyā ke bhañvar huuñ aur jaulānī meñ huuñ
sham-e-bazm-e-dil-barāñ hai merī dil-sozī kī zau
maiñ dil-e-āshiq ke ḳhvāboñ kī gul-afshānī meñ huuñ
log kyuuñ is shahr ke itne pareshāñ-hāl haiñ
maiñ ki ḳhush-dil thā sadā kā is pareshānī meñ huuñ
maiñ ki huuñ ik ḳhush-fahm sāda-lauh tifl-e-pīr-sāl
aur phir ziddī bhī huuñ ḳhush apnī nādānī meñ huuñ
kyā ḳhabar merā safar hai aur kitnī duur kā
kāġhzī ik naav huuñ aur tez-rau paanī meñ huuñ
husn-e-kul kā ārzū-mand is tunuk-jānī meñ huuñ
mere qad se jo bahut ūñchā hai us paanī meñ huuñ
be-karan dariya hun gham ka aur tughyani mein hun
sab haden hain phir bhi qaem kab se hairani mein hun
shab ki tanhai mein mujh ko aisa lagta hai kabhi
main hun ruh-e-zindagi go paikar-e-fani mein hun
jagmagati mahfil-e-aflak mera aks-e-zat
lau main hun anjum ki main suraj ki tabani mein hun
subh-gahan dasht o gulshan mein nasim-e-narm-mauj
bich dariya ke bhanwar hun aur jaulani mein hun
sham-e-bazm-e-dil-baran hai meri dil-sozi ki zau
main dil-e-ashiq ke KHwabon ki gul-afshani mein hun
log kyun is shahr ke itne pareshan-haal hain
main ki KHush-dil tha sada ka is pareshani mein hun
main ki hun ek KHush-fahm sada-lauh tifl-e-pir-sal
aur phir ziddi bhi hun KHush apni nadani mein hun
kya KHabar mera safar hai aur kitni dur ka
kaghzi ek naw hun aur tez-rau pani mein hun
husn-e-kul ka aarzu-mand is tunuk-jaani mein hun
mere qad se jo bahut uncha hai us pani mein hun
