kahan hun main ki mera koi aashna bhi nahin
kahāñ huuñ maiñ ki mirā koī āshnā bhī nahīñ
kisī kā zikr to kyā ghar meñ aa.ina bhī nahīñ
rahe ḳhamosh to TuuTā na rishta-e-ummīd
pukārte to ḳharāboñ meñ koī thā bhī nahīñ
tirī sadā pe to sadiyāñ bhī lauT aatī haiñ
mujhe balā meñ kuchh aisā shikasta-pā bhī nahīñ
ye aur baat ki naqsh-e-qadam dikhā.ī na deñ
magar vo arsa-e-dil se abhī gayā bhī nahīñ
is e'tirāf se ras ghul rahā hai kānoñ meñ
vo e'tirāf jo us ne abhī kiyā bhī nahīñ
jis ek chiiz se terā firāq āsāñ hai
vo ek chiiz tirī yaad ke sivā bhī nahīñ
mirā bharam haiñ taġhāful-shi.āriyāñ terī
tū pūchh le to mirā koī mudda.ā bhī nahīñ
musālahat bhī nahīñ hai sarisht meñ apnī
magar kisī se tasādum kā hausla bhī nahīñ
na jaane kab na raheñ ham hameñ ġhanīmat jaan
hayāt-o-maut meñ kuchh aisā fāsla bhī nahīñ
ma.āl-e-kār-e-qanā.at hai so abhī se sahī
vagarna tūl-e-tamannā kī intihā bhī nahīñ
kahan hun main ki mera koi aashna bhi nahin
kisi ka zikr to kya ghar mein aaina bhi nahin
rahe KHamosh to TuTa na rishta-e-ummid
pukarte to KHarabon mein koi tha bhi nahin
teri sada pe to sadiyan bhi lauT aati hain
mujhe bala mein kuchh aisa shikasta-pa bhi nahin
ye aur baat ki naqsh-e-qadam dikhai na den
magar wo arsa-e-dil se abhi gaya bhi nahin
is e'tiraf se ras ghul raha hai kanon mein
wo e'tiraf jo us ne abhi kiya bhi nahin
jis ek chiz se tera firaq aasan hai
wo ek chiz teri yaad ke siwa bhi nahin
mera bharam hain taghaful-shiariyan teri
tu puchh le to mera koi muddaa bhi nahin
musalahat bhi nahin hai sarisht mein apni
magar kisi se tasadum ka hausla bhi nahin
na jaane kab na rahen hum hamein ghanimat jaan
hayat-o-maut mein kuchh aisa fasla bhi nahin
maal-e-kar-e-qanaat hai so abhi se sahi
wagarna tul-e-tamanna ki intiha bhi nahin
