hum kabhi KHud se koi baat nahin kar pate
ham kabhī ḳhud se koī baat nahīñ kar paate
zindagī tujh se mulāqāt nahīñ kar paate
baiTh jaatā hai jahāñ dard thakā-hārā sā
ḳhvāb bhī us se savālāt nahīñ kar paate
un se phir aur kisī shai kī tavaqqo kaisī
chand lamhe bhī jo ḳhairāt nahīñ kar paate
zindagī be-sar-o-sāmāñ hī guzar jaatī hai
din jo kar lete haiñ vo raat nahīñ kar paate
umr-bhar un ke muqaddar meñ haiñ sūkhe dariyā
apnī koshish se jo barsāt nahīñ kar paate
sabr kī baat baḌī shukr ke dariyā gahre
lekin un se guzar auqāt nahīñ kar paate
kabhī bhūle se muqaddar jo hameñ detā hai
suraḳh-rū ham vahī lamhāt nahīñ kar paate
ik na ik ḳhauf hameñ rok liyā kartā hai
ham bayāñ Dūbte jazbāt nahīñ kar paate
paas aate haiñ jahāñ apne irāde 'ūshā'
ham kabhī un kī mudārāt nahīñ kar paate
hum kabhi KHud se koi baat nahin kar pate
zindagi tujh se mulaqat nahin kar pate
baiTh jata hai jahan dard thaka-haara sa
KHwab bhi us se sawalat nahin kar pate
un se phir aur kisi shai ki tawaqqo kaisi
chand lamhe bhi jo KHairaat nahin kar pate
zindagi be-sar-o-saman hi guzar jati hai
din jo kar lete hain wo raat nahin kar pate
umr-bhar un ke muqaddar mein hain sukhe dariya
apni koshish se jo barsat nahin kar pate
sabr ki baat baDi shukr ke dariya gahre
lekin un se guzar auqat nahin kar pate
kabhi bhule se muqaddar jo hamein deta hai
suraKH-ru hum wahi lamhat nahin kar pate
ek na ek KHauf hamein rok liya karta hai
hum bayan Dubte jazbaat nahin kar pate
pas aate hain jahan apne irade 'usha'
hum kabhi un ki mudaraat nahin kar pate
