shikasta-pa hi sahi dur ki sada hi sahi
shikasta-pā hī sahī duur kī sadā hī sahī
bikhar gayā jo havā se vo naqsh-e-pā hī sahī
ye hukm hai ki ga.e mausamoñ ko yaad karūñ
na.ī rutoñ kā tajassus mujhe milā hī sahī
zamīñ ke ba.ad abhī āsmāñ ke dukh bhī sahūñ
mire liye ye sazā hai baḌī atā hī sahī
charāġh kah ke mirā nuur mujh se chhīn liyā
charāġh phir bhī rahūñgā bujhā huā hī sahī
sajā liye haiñ masā.ib ke niir āñkhoñ meñ
sukūñ kī niiñd nahīñ hai to ratjagā hī sahī
ai dhaḌkanoñ ko nayā nuur baḳhshne vaale
maiñ nuur se hī tahī tū mirī ḳhatā hī sahī
haqīqatoñ ke badan par koī labāda nahīñ
agar ye sach kī sazā hai to phir sazā hī sahī
ye dil kā karb laboñ tak kabhī na aa.egā
mire liye ye ḳhamoshī kā irtiqā hī sahī
jahāñ ke dard ko 'anvār' ne sameT liyā
maiñ ik ḳhushī kī tamannā meñ mar-miTā hī sahī
shikasta-pa hi sahi dur ki sada hi sahi
bikhar gaya jo hawa se wo naqsh-e-pa hi sahi
ye hukm hai ki gae mausamon ko yaad karun
nai ruton ka tajassus mujhe mila hi sahi
zamin ke baad abhi aasman ke dukh bhi sahun
mere liye ye saza hai baDi ata hi sahi
charagh kah ke mera nur mujh se chhin liya
charagh phir bhi rahunga bujha hua hi sahi
saja liye hain masaib ke nir aankhon mein
sukun ki nind nahin hai to ratjaga hi sahi
ai dhaDkanon ko naya nur baKHshne wale
main nur se hi tahi tu meri KHata hi sahi
haqiqaton ke badan par koi labaada nahin
agar ye sach ki saza hai to phir saza hi sahi
ye dil ka karb labon tak kabhi na aaega
mere liye ye KHamoshi ka irtiqa hi sahi
jahan ke dard ko 'anwar' ne sameT liya
main ek KHushi ki tamanna mein mar-miTa hi sahi
