kahin tha main mujhe hona kahin tha
kahīñ thā maiñ mujhe honā kahīñ thā
maiñ dariyā thā magar sahrā-nashīñ thā
shikast-o-reḳht kaisī fat.h kaisī
ki jab koī muqābil hī nahīñ thā
mile the ham to mausam hañs diye the
jahāñ jo bhī milā ḳhandāñ-jabīñ thā
saverā thā shab-e-tīra ke aage
jahāñ dīvār thī rasta vahīñ thā
milī manzil kise kār-e-vafā meñ
magar ye rāsta kitnā hasīñ thā
jilau meñ tishnagī āñkhoñ meñ sāhil
kahīñ siine meñ sahrā jā-guzīñ thā
kahin tha main mujhe hona kahin tha
main dariya tha magar sahra-nashin tha
shikast-o-reKHt kaisi fath kaisi
ki jab koi muqabil hi nahin tha
mile the hum to mausam hans diye the
jahan jo bhi mila KHandan-jabin tha
sawera tha shab-e-tira ke aage
jahan diwar thi rasta wahin tha
mili manzil kise kar-e-wafa mein
magar ye rasta kitna hasin tha
jilau mein tishnagi aankhon mein sahil
kahin sine mein sahra ja-guzin tha
