ek umr mah-o-sal ki Thokar mein raha hun
ik umr mah-o-sāl kī Thokar meñ rahā huuñ
maiñ sañg sahī phir bhī sar-e-rāh-e-vafā huuñ
aap apne hī nā-karda gunāhoñ kī sazā huuñ
āvāz huuñ lekin tire hoñToñ se judā huuñ
kyā kam hai ki rusvā-e-jahāñ huuñ tirī ḳhātir
maiñ daaġh huuñ lekin tire māthe pe sajā huuñ
paanī meñ nazar aatī hai ik chāñd sī sūrat
pyāsā huuñ magar der se dariyā pe khaḌā huuñ
ik tū hī nahīñ aur bhī ḳhūbān-e-jahāñ haiñ
tujh ko nahīñ paayā hai to auroñ se milā huuñ
sab des mire des haiñ sab log mire log
kyā jāniye maiñ kaun sī miTTī kā banā huuñ
ek umr mah-o-sal ki Thokar mein raha hun
main sang sahi phir bhi sar-e-rah-e-wafa hun
aap apne hi na-karda gunahon ki saza hun
aawaz hun lekin tere honTon se juda hun
kya kam hai ki ruswa-e-jahan hun teri KHatir
main dagh hun lekin tere mathe pe saja hun
pani mein nazar aati hai ek chand si surat
pyasa hun magar der se dariya pe khaDa hun
ek tu hi nahin aur bhi KHuban-e-jahan hain
tujh ko nahin paya hai to auron se mila hun
sab des mere des hain sab log mere log
kya jaaniye main kaun si miTTi ka bana hun
