is rahguzar mein apna qadam bhi juda mila

is rahguzar meñ apnā qadam bhī judā milā

itnī sa.ūbatoñ kā hameñ ye sila milā

ik vus.at-e-ḳhayāl ki lafzoñ meñ ghir ga.ī

lahja kabhī jo ham ko karam-āshnā milā

tāroñ ko gardisheñ milīñ zarroñ ko tābisheñ

ai rah-navard rāh-e-junūñ tujh ko kyā milā

ham se baḌhī masāfat-e-dasht-e-vafā ki ham

ḳhud hī bhaTak ga.e jo kabhī rāsta milā

is rahguzar mein apna qadam bhi juda mila

itni saubaton ka hamein ye sila mila

ek wusat-e-KHayal ki lafzon mein ghir gai

lahja kabhi jo hum ko karam-ashna mila

taron ko gardishen milin zarron ko tabishen

ai rah-naward rah-e-junun tujh ko kya mila

hum se baDhi masafat-e-dasht-e-wafa ki hum

KHud hi bhaTak gae jo kabhi rasta mila
