jidhar ho zindagi mushkil udhar nahin aate
jidhar ho zindagī mushkil udhar nahīñ aate
ajal se pahle mire chāra-gar nahīñ aate
banā huā hai mirā shahr qatl-gāh koī
palaT ke maaoñ ke laḳht-e-jigar nahīñ aate
uThā.e apnoñ kī lāsheñ jo tum ho nauha-kunāñ
mire shahīd tumheñ kyuuñ nazar nahīñ aate
na intizār karo in kā ai azā-dāro
shahīd jaate haiñ jannat ko ghar nahīñ aate
maiñ nauhe kab nahīñ likhtā huuñ raftagāñ ke 'zafar'
kab ashk misl-e-hurūf-e-hunar nahīñ aate
jidhar ho zindagi mushkil udhar nahin aate
ajal se pahle mere chaara-gar nahin aate
bana hua hai mera shahr qatl-gah koi
palaT ke maon ke laKHt-e-jigar nahin aate
uThae apnon ki lashen jo tum ho nauha-kunan
mere shahid tumhein kyun nazar nahin aate
na intizar karo in ka ai aza-daro
shahid jate hain jannat ko ghar nahin aate
main nauhe kab nahin likhta hun raftagan ke 'zafar'
kab ashk misl-e-huruf-e-hunar nahin aate
