apne dukhon ka humne tamasha nahin kiya
apne dukhoñ kā ham ne tamāsha nahīñ kiyā
faaqe kiye magar kabhī shikva nahīñ kiyā
be-ghar hue tabāh hue dar-ba-dar hue
lekin tumhāre naam ko rusvā nahīñ kiyā
go ham charāġh-e-vaqt ko raushan na kar sake
par apnī zaat se to añdherā nahīñ kiyā
is par bhī ham luTāte rahe daulat-e-yaqīñ
ik pal bhī jis ne ham pe bharosa nahīñ kiyā
us shaḳhs ke liye bhī duā go rahe haiñ ham
jis ne hamāre haq meñ kuchh achchhā nahīñ kiyā
hālāñki ehtirām sabhī kā kiyā magar
ham ne kisī ko qibla-o-ka.aba nahīñ kiyā
'tāriq-matīn' khāte rahe umr-bhar fareb
lekin kisī ke saath bhī dhokā nahīñ kiyā
apne dukhon ka hum ne tamasha nahin kiya
faqe kiye magar kabhi shikwa nahin kiya
be-ghar hue tabah hue dar-ba-dar hue
lekin tumhaare nam ko ruswa nahin kiya
go hum charagh-e-waqt ko raushan na kar sake
par apni zat se to andhera nahin kiya
is par bhi hum luTate rahe daulat-e-yaqin
ek pal bhi jis ne hum pe bharosa nahin kiya
us shaKHs ke liye bhi dua go rahe hain hum
jis ne hamare haq mein kuchh achchha nahin kiya
haalanki ehtiram sabhi ka kiya magar
hum ne kisi ko qibla-o-kaba nahin kiya
'tariq-matin' khate rahe umr-bhar fareb
lekin kisi ke sath bhi dhoka nahin kiya
