aankh jhukti hai na wo rang-e-haya jata hai
aañkh jhuktī hai na vo rang-e-hayā jaatā hai
yaar vo shaḳhs baḌe zaḳhm lagā jaatā hai
maiñ vo patthar huuñ ki vahshat meñ uThā kar jis ko
be-sabab yūñhī kahīñ pheñk diyā jaatā hai
zindagī jaise koī tez havā kā jhoñkā
yūñhī aatā hai zarā ḳhaak uḌā jaatā hai
maiñ kisī sā’at-e-maujūd meñ maujūd nahīñ
maiñ vo lamha hī nahīñ jis ko jiyā jaatā hai
be-gila yuuñ bhī hai har shaḳhs na.e hākim se
jo gila karne ko jaatā hai galā jaatā hai
maiñ vo raste meñ bhaTaktā huā andhā huuñ 'vasīm'
jis ko har shaḳhs ġhalat raah lagā jaatā hai
aankh jhukti hai na wo rang-e-haya jata hai
yar wo shaKHs baDe zaKHm laga jata hai
main wo patthar hun ki wahshat mein uTha kar jis ko
be-sabab yunhi kahin phenk diya jata hai
zindagi jaise koi tez hawa ka jhonka
yunhi aata hai zara KHak uDa jata hai
main kisi sa’at-e-maujud mein maujud nahin
main wo lamha hi nahin jis ko jiya jata hai
be-gila yun bhi hai har shaKHs nae hakim se
jo gila karne ko jata hai gala jata hai
main wo raste mein bhaTakta hua andha hun 'wasim'
jis ko har shaKHs ghalat rah laga jata hai
