ibtida hun ki intiha hun main
ibtidā huuñ ki intihā huuñ maiñ
umr bhar sochtā rahā huuñ maiñ
lafz-o-ma.anī se māvarā huuñ maiñ
ek ḳhāmosh iltijā huuñ maiñ
dil meñ koī ḳhushī nahīñ lekin
ādatan muskurā rahā huuñ maiñ
nā-tavāñ ho ke adl chāhtā huuñ
vāqa.ī qābil-e-sazā huuñ maiñ
dekh kar rañg bazm-e-ālam kā
naqsh-e-dīvār ban gayā huuñ maiñ
subah ke intizār meñ 'rif.at'
raat bhar sochtā rahā huuñ maiñ
ibtida hun ki intiha hun main
umr bhar sochta raha hun main
lafz-o-mani se mawara hun main
ek KHamosh iltija hun main
dil mein koi KHushi nahin lekin
aadatan muskura raha hun main
na-tawan ho ke adl chahta hun
waqai qabil-e-saza hun main
dekh kar rang bazm-e-alam ka
naqsh-e-diwar ban gaya hun main
subah ke intizar mein 'rifat'
raat bhar sochta raha hun main
