hamare bas mein kya hai aur hamare bas mein kya nahin
hamāre bas meñ kyā hai aur hamāre bas meñ kyā nahīñ
jahān-e-hast-o-būd meñ kisī pe kuchh khulā nahīñ
huzūr-e-ḳhvāb der tak khaḌā rahā saver tak
nasheb-e-qalb-o-chashm se guzar tirā huā nahīñ
nazar meñ ik charāġh thā badan meñ ek baaġh thā
charāġh o baaġh ho chuke koī rihā rahā nahīñ
ujaḌ ga.iiñ haveliyāñ chalī ga.iiñ saheliyāñ
dilā tirī qabīl se koī bhī ab bachā nahīñ
havas kī razm-gāh meñ badan kī kār-gāh meñ
vo shor thā ki duur tak kisī ne kuchh sunā nahīñ
na jaane kitne yug Dhale na jaane kitne dukh pale
gharoñ meñ hāñDiyoñ tale kisī ko kuchh pata nahīñ
vo peḌ jis kī chhāñv meñ kaTī thī umr gaañv meñ
maiñ chuum chuum thak gayā magar ye dil bharā nahīñ
hamare bas mein kya hai aur hamare bas mein kya nahin
jahan-e-hast-o-bud mein kisi pe kuchh khula nahin
huzur-e-KHwab der tak khaDa raha sawer tak
nasheb-e-qalb-o-chashm se guzar tera hua nahin
nazar mein ek charagh tha badan mein ek bagh tha
charagh o bagh ho chuke koi riha raha nahin
ujaD gain haweliyan chali gain saheliyan
dila teri qabil se koi bhi ab bacha nahin
hawas ki razm-gah mein badan ki kar-gah mein
wo shor tha ki dur tak kisi ne kuchh suna nahin
na jaane kitne yug Dhale na jaane kitne dukh pale
gharon mein hanDiyon tale kisi ko kuchh pata nahin
wo peD jis ki chhanw mein kaTi thi umr ganw mein
main chum chum thak gaya magar ye dil bhara nahin
