ehsas-e-husn ban ke nazar mein sama gae
ehsās-e-husn ban ke nazar meñ samā ga.e
go laakh duur the vo magar paas aa ga.e
ik raushnī sī dil meñ thī vo bhī nahīñ rahī
vo kyā ga.e charāġh-e-tamannā bujhā ga.e
dair o haram hai aur to hāsil na kuchh huā
sajde ġhurūr-e-ishq kī qīmat ghaTā ga.e
tanhā-ravī meñ yuuñ to musībat thī har qadam
ham ahl-e-kārvāñ se to pīchhā chhuḌā ga.e
kitnā fareb-kār hai ehsās-e-bandagī
ham manzil-e-ḳhudī se bahut duur aa ga.e
ulfat meñ fikr-e-zīst nadāmat kī baat thī
achchhe rahe jo jaan kī baazī lagā ga.e
jo haal un kā thā vo hamīñ jānte haiñ 'arsh'
yuuñ vo hamārī baat hañsī meñ uḌā ga.e
ehsas-e-husn ban ke nazar mein sama gae
go lakh dur the wo magar pas aa gae
ek raushni si dil mein thi wo bhi nahin rahi
wo kya gae charagh-e-tamanna bujha gae
dair o haram hai aur to hasil na kuchh hua
sajde ghurur-e-ishq ki qimat ghaTa gae
tanha-rawi mein yun to musibat thi har qadam
hum ahl-e-karwan se to pichha chhuDa gae
kitna fareb-kar hai ehsas-e-bandagi
hum manzil-e-KHudi se bahut dur aa gae
ulfat mein fikr-e-zist nadamat ki baat thi
achchhe rahe jo jaan ki bazi laga gae
jo haal un ka tha wo hamin jaante hain 'arsh'
yun wo hamari baat hansi mein uDa gae
