fikr pabandi-e-haalat se aage na baDhi

fikr pābandī-e-hālāt se aage na baḌhī

zindagī qaid-e-maqāmāt se aage na baḌhī

ham samajhte the ġham-e-dil kā mudāvā hogī

vo nazar pursish-e-hālāt se aage na baḌhī

un kī ḳhāmoshī bhī afsāna-dar-afsāna banī

ham ne jo baat kahī baat se aage na baḌhī

sarḳhushī ban na sakī zahr-e-alam kā tiryāk

zindagī talḳhī-e-hālāt se aage na baḌhī

ishq har marhala-e-ġham kī hadeñ toḌ chukā

aql andesha-e-hālāt se aage na baḌhī

aisī jannat kī havas tujh ko mubārak zāhid

jo tire husn-e-ḳhayālāt se aage na baḌhī

nigah-e-dost meñ tauqīr nahīñ us kī hamīd

vo tamannā jo munājāt se aage na baḌhī

fikr pabandi-e-haalat se aage na baDhi

zindagi qaid-e-maqamat se aage na baDhi

hum samajhte the gham-e-dil ka mudawa hogi

wo nazar pursish-e-haalat se aage na baDhi

un ki KHamoshi bhi afsana-dar-afsana bani

hum ne jo baat kahi baat se aage na baDhi

sarKHushi ban na saki zahr-e-alam ka tiryak

zindagi talKHi-e-haalat se aage na baDhi

ishq har marhala-e-gham ki haden toD chuka

aql andesha-e-haalat se aage na baDhi

aisi jannat ki hawas tujh ko mubarak zahid

jo tere husn-e-KHayalat se aage na baDhi

nigah-e-dost mein tauqir nahin us ki hamid

wo tamanna jo munajat se aage na baDhi
