hansi mein Tal to deta hun aksar
hañsī meñ Taal to detā huuñ aksar
magar maiñ ḳhush nahīñ barbād ho kar
koī martā nahīñ zabt-e-fuġhāñ se
zarā sā daaġh paḌ jaatā hai dil par
likhī hai reg-e-sāhil par jo maiñ ne
vo chiTThī paḌh nahīñ saktā samundar
jahāñ ham haiñ vahāñ sab dā.ere haiñ
kisī kā koī markaz hai na mehvar
mujhe jaanā hai vāpas bādaloñ meñ
nahīñ honā mujhe qatre se gauhar
mujhe kuchh der ruknā chāhiye thā
vo shāyad dekh hī letā palaT kar
hansi mein Tal to deta hun aksar
magar main KHush nahin barbaad ho kar
koi marta nahin zabt-e-fughan se
zara sa dagh paD jata hai dil par
likhi hai reg-e-sahil par jo main ne
wo chiTThi paDh nahin sakta samundar
jahan hum hain wahan sab daere hain
kisi ka koi markaz hai na mehwar
mujhe jaana hai wapas baadalon mein
nahin hona mujhe qatre se gauhar
mujhe kuchh der rukna chahiye tha
wo shayad dekh hi leta palaT kar
