jo KHud ko paen to phir dusra talash karen
jo ḳhud ko paa.eñ to phir dūsrā talāsh kareñ
is ik hayāt meñ ab aur kyā talāsh kareñ
sitāra-go hai ye shab is ko ġhaur se sun leñ
aur is kā din jo kahīñ kho gayā talāsh kareñ
ham apnī baat ko dīvār hī meñ chunvā deñ
nazar shabīh samā.at sadā talāsh kareñ
hai bāb-e-jāñ pe rukā aks-e-mehmāñ aa kar
sar-e-vajūd koī aa.ina talāsh kareñ
havā meñ zahr hai sahrā kā yā samundar kā
ye ilm ho to koī badraqa talāsh kareñ
jo KHud ko paen to phir dusra talash karen
is ek hayat mein ab aur kya talash karen
sitara-go hai ye shab is ko ghaur se sun len
aur is ka din jo kahin kho gaya talash karen
hum apni baat ko diwar hi mein chunwa den
nazar shabih samaat sada talash karen
hai bab-e-jaan pe ruka aks-e-mehman aa kar
sar-e-wajud koi aaina talash karen
hawa mein zahr hai sahra ka ya samundar ka
ye ilm ho to koi badraqa talash karen
