kyun aashna-e-gham dil-e-wahshat-asar nahin
kyuuñ āshnā-e-ġham dil-e-vahshat-asar nahīñ
mānūs-e-iltifāt vo zālim agar nahīñ
maiñ huuñ talāsh-e-rāh-e-mohabbat hai dasht hai
saaya nahīñ nishān nahīñ ham-safar nahīñ
phir rāh-rau se letā huuñ manzil kā kuchh surāġh
sab rāhbar haiñ mere koī rāhbar nahīñ
phir andalīb-e-zār ne tinke uThā liye
shāyad chaman ujaḌne kī is ko ḳhabar nahīñ
maiñ aur jām-o-naġhma-o-mutrib se vāsta
ḳhush huuñ ki merā bazm-e-tarab meñ guzar nahīñ
kyuuñ jal na jaa.e tāb-e-ruḳh-e-yār dekh kar
dil hai ye koī chashm-e-haqīqat-nigar nahīñ
aurāq-e-do-jahāñ pe jo tahrīr ho sake
itnā mirā fasāna-e-ġham muḳhtasar nahīñ
zabt-e-junūñ ne Dhaa.ī haiñ dil kī imārateñ
ab is dayār meñ koī dīvār-o-dar nahīñ
dil ko supurd karte haiñ apnā payām-e-jāñ
ye mo'tabar nahīñ to koī mo'tabar nahīñ
paivast hoñ na jis meñ zamāne ke dil 'jigar'
kuchh aur hai vo aap kā tīr-e-nazar nahīñ
kaisī duā kahāñ kā asar kis kā mudda.ā
kuchh aag ke sivā mire dil meñ 'jigar' nahīñ
kyun aashna-e-gham dil-e-wahshat-asar nahin
manus-e-iltifat wo zalim agar nahin
main hun talash-e-rah-e-mohabbat hai dasht hai
saya nahin nishan nahin ham-safar nahin
phir rah-rau se leta hun manzil ka kuchh suragh
sab rahbar hain mere koi rahbar nahin
phir andalib-e-zar ne tinke uTha liye
shayad chaman ujaDne ki is ko KHabar nahin
main aur jam-o-naghma-o-mutrib se wasta
KHush hun ki mera bazm-e-tarab mein guzar nahin
kyun jal na jae tab-e-ruKH-e-yar dekh kar
dil hai ye koi chashm-e-haqiqat-nigar nahin
auraq-e-do-jahan pe jo tahrir ho sake
itna mera fasana-e-gham muKHtasar nahin
zabt-e-junun ne Dhai hain dil ki imaraten
ab is dayar mein koi diwar-o-dar nahin
dil ko supurd karte hain apna payam-e-jaan
ye mo'tabar nahin to koi mo'tabar nahin
paiwast hon na jis mein zamane ke dil 'jigar'
kuchh aur hai wo aap ka tir-e-nazar nahin
kaisi dua kahan ka asar kis ka muddaa
kuchh aag ke siwa mere dil mein 'jigar' nahin
