Dar ye hai bazuon mein mom ki surat na pighal jae kahin
Dar ye hai bāzuoñ meñ mom kī sūrat na pighal jaa.e kahīñ
tū mire saath mire jism ke dozaḳh meñ na jal jaa.e kahīñ
ghar se gaatā huā niklā to huuñ maiñ naġhma-e-ehsās magar
shahr ke shor meñ dab jaa.eñ na sar lai na badal jaa.e kahīñ
faqat is ḳhauf se jaatā nahīñ maiñ sub.h-e-tarab kī jānib
ufuq-e-dil se tire dard kā mahtāb na Dhal jaa.e kahīñ
ye tirā kaam nahīñ dekh na duniyā kī taraf gaa.e jā
maddham ik aah meñ ik chīḳh meñ pancham na badal jaa.e kahīñ
sub.h nazdīk hai karvaT bhī badal soch samajh kar 'ḳhālid'
zehn par āḳhir-e-shab niind kī talvār na chal jaa.e kahīñ
Dar ye hai bazuon mein mom ki surat na pighal jae kahin
tu mere sath mere jism ke dozaKH mein na jal jae kahin
ghar se gata hua nikla to hun main naghma-e-ehsas magar
shahr ke shor mein dab jaen na sar lai na badal jae kahin
faqat is KHauf se jata nahin main subh-e-tarab ki jaanib
ufuq-e-dil se tere dard ka mahtab na Dhal jae kahin
ye tera kaam nahin dekh na duniya ki taraf gae ja
maddham ek aah mein ek chiKH mein pancham na badal jae kahin
subh nazdik hai karwaT bhi badal soch samajh kar 'KHalid'
zehn par aaKHir-e-shab nind ki talwar na chal jae kahin
