chale the bhar ke ret jab safar ki jism-o-jaan mein hum
chale the bhar ke ret jab safar kī jism-o-jāñ meñ ham
to sāhiloñ kā aks dekhte the bādbāñ meñ ham
tuyūr the jo ghoñsloñ meñ paikaroñ ke uḌ ga.e
akele rah ga.e haiñ apne ḳhvāb ke makāñ meñ ham
hamārī justujū bhī ab to ho ga.ī hai gard gard
ki naqsh-e-pā ko DhūñDte haiñ rah ke har nishāñ meñ ham
ishāriyat thī be-zabāñ thā lafz lafz dāstāñ
sunāte kis tarah ki gum the ḳhud hī dāstāñ meñ ham
baras rahī hai āsmāñ se misl-e-sañg tīrgī
khaḌe haiñ kab se terī aarzū ke sā.ebāñ meñ ham
zamīñ kā dard be-badan bhī ho ke apne dil meñ thā
tabhī to khiñch ke aa ga.e the varna āsmāñ meñ ham
nafas nafas hai zindagī kā kārobār muntashar
divāliya hue ki jab se aa.e is jahāñ meñ ham
chale the bhar ke ret jab safar ki jism-o-jaan mein hum
to sahilon ka aks dekhte the baadban mein hum
tuyur the jo ghonslon mein paikaron ke uD gae
akele rah gae hain apne KHwab ke makan mein hum
hamari justuju bhi ab to ho gai hai gard gard
ki naqsh-e-pa ko DhunDte hain rah ke har nishan mein hum
ishaariyat thi be-zaban tha lafz lafz dastan
sunate kis tarah ki gum the KHud hi dastan mein hum
baras rahi hai aasman se misl-e-sang tirgi
khaDe hain kab se teri aarzu ke saeban mein hum
zamin ka dard be-badan bhi ho ke apne dil mein tha
tabhi to khinch ke aa gae the warna aasman mein hum
nafas nafas hai zindagi ka karobar muntashar
diwaliya hue ki jab se aae is jahan mein hum
