kisi ke naqsh-e-qadam ka nishan nahin milta
kisī ke naqsh-e-qadam kā nishāñ nahīñ miltā
vo rahguzar huuñ jise kārvāñ nahīñ miltā
qadam qadam pe tirī raah meñ falak haa.il
mujhe talāsh se bhī āsmāñ nahīñ miltā
unheñ tarīqa-e-lutf-o-karam nahīñ mālūm
hameñ salīqa-e-āh-o-fuġhāñ nahīñ miltā
urūs-e-dahr ko ġhāza bhī chāhiye lekin
ġhubār-e-jāda-e-amn-o-amāñ nahīñ miltā
dhaḌak rahā hai har ahl-e-vafā ke siine meñ
hamārā dard bharā dil kahāñ nahīñ miltā
sabhī ko da.ava-e-mahr-o-vafā hai duniyā meñ
jo mehrbāñ na ho vo mehrbāñ nahīñ miltā
ġham-e-hayāt ke pur-haul qahqahoñ ke sivā
kahīñ se apnā javāb-e-fuġhāñ nahīñ miltā
dil-e-shikasta ko le jā.iye kahāñ 'bāsit'
dimāġh-e-naḳhvat-e-shīsha-garāñ nahīñ miltā
kisi ke naqsh-e-qadam ka nishan nahin milta
wo rahguzar hun jise karwan nahin milta
qadam qadam pe teri rah mein falak hail
mujhe talash se bhi aasman nahin milta
unhen tariqa-e-lutf-o-karam nahin malum
hamein saliqa-e-ah-o-fughan nahin milta
urus-e-dahr ko ghaza bhi chahiye lekin
ghubar-e-jada-e-amn-o-aman nahin milta
dhaDak raha hai har ahl-e-wafa ke sine mein
hamara dard bhara dil kahan nahin milta
sabhi ko dawa-e-mahr-o-wafa hai duniya mein
jo mehrban na ho wo mehrban nahin milta
gham-e-hayat ke pur-haul qahqahon ke siwa
kahin se apna jawab-e-fughan nahin milta
dil-e-shikasta ko le jaiye kahan 'basit'
dimagh-e-naKHwat-e-shisha-garan nahin milta
