kisi surat se ho jata hai saman-e-safar paida

kisī sūrat se ho jaatā hai sāmān-e-safar paidā

irāda kar hī letā hai ḳhud apnī rahguzar paidā

gunahgārī kī niyyat ko gunahgārī nahīñ kahte

safar ke qasd se hotī hai kab gard-e-safar paidā

zarūrī kyā ki barse aag uupar se nasheman par

ḳhas-o-ḳhāshāk haiñ ho jā.eñge barq-o-sharar paidā

koī pursān-e-ġham ho yā na ho kyā farq paḌtā hai

aziyyat ḳhud hī kar letī hai apnā chāragar paidā

'munavvar' mujh pe shām-e-yās ġhālib aa nahīñ saktī

ki har ummīd se hotā hai ik rang-e-sahar paidā

kisi surat se ho jata hai saman-e-safar paida

irada kar hi leta hai KHud apni rahguzar paida

gunahgari ki niyyat ko gunahgari nahin kahte

safar ke qasd se hoti hai kab gard-e-safar paida

zaruri kya ki barse aag upar se nasheman par

KHas-o-KHashak hain ho jaenge barq-o-sharar paida

koi pursan-e-gham ho ya na ho kya farq paDta hai

aziyyat KHud hi kar leti hai apna chaaragar paida

'munawwar' mujh pe sham-e-yas ghaalib aa nahin sakti

ki har ummid se hota hai ek rang-e-sahar paida
