mahtab nahin nikla sitare nahin nikle
mahtāb nahīñ niklā sitāre nahīñ nikle
dete jo shab-e-ġham meñ sahāre nahīñ nikle
kal raat nihattā koī detā thā sadā.eñ
ham ghar se magar ḳhauf ke maare nahīñ nikle
kyā chhoḌ ke bastī ko gayā tū ki tire ba.ad
phir ghar se tire hijr ke maare nahīñ nikle
baiThe raho kuchh der abhī aur muqābil
armān abhī dil ke hamāre nahīñ nikle
niklī to haiñ saj-dhaj ke tirī yaad kī pariyāñ
ḳhvāboñ ke magar raaj dulāre nahīñ nikle
kab ahl-e-vafā jaan kī baazī nahīñ haare
kab ishq meñ jānoñ ke ḳhasāre nahīñ nikle
andāz koī Dūbne ke sīkhe to ham se
ham Duub ke dariyā ke kināre nahīñ nikle
vo log ki the jin pe bharose hameñ kyā kyā
dekhā to vahī log hamāre nahīñ nikle
ash.ār meñ daftar hai ma.ānī kā bhī 'rahbar'
ham lafzoñ hī ke mahz sahāre nahīñ nikle
mahtab nahin nikla sitare nahin nikle
dete jo shab-e-gham mein sahaare nahin nikle
kal raat nihatta koi deta tha sadaen
hum ghar se magar KHauf ke mare nahin nikle
kya chhoD ke basti ko gaya tu ki tere baad
phir ghar se tere hijr ke mare nahin nikle
baiThe raho kuchh der abhi aur muqabil
arman abhi dil ke hamare nahin nikle
nikli to hain saj-dhaj ke teri yaad ki pariyan
KHwabon ke magar raj dulare nahin nikle
kab ahl-e-wafa jaan ki bazi nahin haare
kab ishq mein jaanon ke KHasare nahin nikle
andaz koi Dubne ke sikhe to hum se
hum Dub ke dariya ke kinare nahin nikle
wo log ki the jin pe bharose hamein kya kya
dekha to wahi log hamare nahin nikle
ashaar mein daftar hai maani ka bhi 'rahbar'
hum lafzon hi ke mahz sahaare nahin nikle
