kahin bhi shahr mein kunj-e-aman nahin milta
kahīñ bhī shahr meñ kunj-e-amāñ nahīñ miltā
ki aaj rābta-e-jism-o-jāñ nahīñ miltā
ye sochtā huuñ kahāñ se ho ibtidā, āḳhir
ki harf koī pas-e-dāstāñ nahīñ miltā
samay kī lahr meñ ġharqāb ho rahā huuñ maiñ
kahīñ pe naav kahīñ bādbāñ nahīñ miltā
tamām umr kī lā-hāsilī azaab huī
vo mil gayā hai to apnā nishāñ nahīñ miltā
batā rahī hai bagūloñ kī ham-rahī mujh ko
pas-e-ġhubār koī kārvāñ nahīñ miltā
mire ḳhilāf shahādat hai mo'tabar sab kī
magar kisī se kisī kā bayāñ nahīñ miltā
ye kaisī sā.ateñ sar par haiñ āj-kal 'at.har'
zamīñ milī hai to ab āsmāñ nahīñ miltā
kahin bhi shahr mein kunj-e-aman nahin milta
ki aaj rabta-e-jism-o-jaan nahin milta
ye sochta hun kahan se ho ibtida, aaKHir
ki harf koi pas-e-dastan nahin milta
samay ki lahr mein gharqab ho raha hun main
kahin pe naw kahin baadban nahin milta
tamam umr ki la-hasili azab hui
wo mil gaya hai to apna nishan nahin milta
bata rahi hai bagulon ki ham-rahi mujh ko
pas-e-ghubar koi karwan nahin milta
mere KHilaf shahadat hai mo'tabar sab ki
magar kisi se kisi ka bayan nahin milta
ye kaisi saaten sar par hain aaj-kal 'athar'
zamin mili hai to ab aasman nahin milta
