ek husn-e-baryab se aage nahin baDhe
ik husn-e-bāryāb se aage nahīñ baḌhe
ya.anī ham ek ḳhvāb se aage nahīñ baḌhe
ik shahr-e-be-murād meñ kaaTī tamām umr
ik ḳhāna-e-ḳharāb se aage nahīñ baḌhe
tujh ko palaT ke dekhne ke dukh se bachnā thā
ham log is hisāb se aage nahīñ baḌhe
aage to baḌh ga.e haiñ tumhāre baġhair bhī
lekin ham āb-o-tāb se aage nahīñ baḌhe
ham ne use gulāb diyā aage baḌh ke 'rāz'
aur phir ham us gulāb se aage nahīñ baḌhe
ek husn-e-baryab se aage nahin baDhe
yani hum ek KHwab se aage nahin baDhe
ek shahr-e-be-murad mein kaTi tamam umr
ek KHana-e-KHarab se aage nahin baDhe
tujh ko palaT ke dekhne ke dukh se bachna tha
hum log is hisab se aage nahin baDhe
aage to baDh gae hain tumhaare baghair bhi
lekin hum aab-o-tab se aage nahin baDhe
hum ne use gulab diya aage baDh ke 'raaz'
aur phir hum us gulab se aage nahin baDhe
