kaam itni hi faqat rahguzar aaegi
kaam itnī hī faqat rāhguzar aa.egī
ham-safar jā.egā aur yād-e-safar aa.egī
duur tak ek ḳhalā hai so ḳhalā ke andar
sirf tanhā.ī kī sūrat hī nazar aa.egī
maiñ ne sochā thā magar ye to nahīñ sochā thā
tīrgī ruuh ke āñgan meñ utar aa.egī
jāgne vaalā koī soyā hamesha ke liye
ab to mātam hī karegī jo sahar aa.egī
ik ajab bū-e-nafas aatī hai dīvāroñ se
aur kuchh roz meñ ye bhī na idhar aa.egī
haa.e kyā log the zindāñ meñ bhī ham se pahle
ik din is yaad kī sūrat bhī bikhar aa.egī
paḌh rahā huuñ maiñ 'zafar' us ke bichhaḌne kī ḳhabar
aur kuchh roz meñ apnī bhī ḳhabar aa.egī
kaam itni hi faqat rahguzar aaegi
ham-safar jaega aur yaad-e-safar aaegi
dur tak ek KHala hai so KHala ke andar
sirf tanhai ki surat hi nazar aaegi
main ne socha tha magar ye to nahin socha tha
tirgi ruh ke aangan mein utar aaegi
jagne wala koi soya hamesha ke liye
ab to matam hi karegi jo sahar aaegi
ek ajab bu-e-nafas aati hai diwaron se
aur kuchh roz mein ye bhi na idhar aaegi
hae kya log the zindan mein bhi hum se pahle
ek din is yaad ki surat bhi bikhar aaegi
paDh raha hun main 'zafar' us ke bichhaDne ki KHabar
aur kuchh roz mein apni bhi KHabar aaegi
