chup ke sahra mein faqat ek sada kaun hun main
chup ke sahrā meñ faqat ek sadā kaun huuñ maiñ
ai ḳhudā tū hī batā mujh ko zarā kaun huuñ maiñ
Dūbtā huuñ to ubhar jaatā huuñ lamha-bhar maiñ
kis ke hoñToñ pe huuñ maiñ harf-e-duā kaun huuñ maiñ
apnī hī zaat kī tashrīh nahīñ kar saktā
rok letī hai mujhe merī anā kaun huuñ maiñ
vasl ne mere tashaḳhḳhus ko sambhāle rakkhā
hijr-o-vahshat se kabhī pūchh zarā kaun huuñ maiñ
maiñ zamīñ-zād bhulā baiThā huuñ mansab apnā
hai ḳhabar apnī na apnā hai pata kaun huuñ maiñ
us ke jaane se ye mahsūs huā hai 'zākir'
hai mirī ruuh alag jism judā kaun huuñ maiñ
chup ke sahra mein faqat ek sada kaun hun main
ai KHuda tu hi bata mujh ko zara kaun hun main
Dubta hun to ubhar jata hun lamha-bhar main
kis ke honTon pe hun main harf-e-dua kaun hun main
apni hi zat ki tashrih nahin kar sakta
rok leti hai mujhe meri ana kaun hun main
wasl ne mere tashaKHKHus ko sambhaale rakkha
hijr-o-wahshat se kabhi puchh zara kaun hun main
main zamin-zad bhula baiTha hun mansab apna
hai KHabar apni na apna hai pata kaun hun main
us ke jaane se ye mahsus hua hai 'zakir'
hai meri ruh alag jism juda kaun hun main
