KHayal-o-KHwab ke dariya ke par asar bhi gae
ḳhayāl-o-ḳhvāb ke dariyā ke paar asar bhī ga.e
jidhar hameñ nahīñ jaanā thā ham udhar bhī ga.e
badan se lipTe rahe be-zamīniyoñ ke azaab
talāsh-e-rizq kī ḳhātir jidhar jidhar bhī ga.e
jo chāhte the sitāroñ se terī maañg bhare
unheñ talāsh na kar ab vo log mar bhī ga.e
ab un kī yādoñ se āñkhoñ ko aur surḳh na kar
vo hādse to zamāna huā guzar bhī ga.e
vo saare ḳhvāb-zada log apne ḳhvāb ke saath
sañvarte rahne ke imkān meñ bikhar bhī ga.e
nazar meñ rañg the ārā.ish-e-makāñ ke magar
havā kuchh aisī chalī ghar ke bām-o-dar bhī ga.e
KHayal-o-KHwab ke dariya ke par asar bhi gae
jidhar hamein nahin jaana tha hum udhar bhi gae
badan se lipTe rahe be-zaminiyon ke azab
talash-e-rizq ki KHatir jidhar jidhar bhi gae
jo chahte the sitaron se teri mang bhare
unhen talash na kar ab wo log mar bhi gae
ab un ki yaadon se aankhon ko aur surKH na kar
wo hadse to zamana hua guzar bhi gae
wo sare KHwab-zada log apne KHwab ke sath
sanwarte rahne ke imkan mein bikhar bhi gae
nazar mein rang the aaraish-e-makan ke magar
hawa kuchh aisi chali ghar ke baam-o-dar bhi gae
