main rakh hota gaya aur charagh jalta raha
maiñ raakh hotā gayā aur charāġh jaltā rahā
charāġh jaltā rahā āsmāñ pighaltā rahā
maiñ buuñd buuñd jalā vasl ke kināre par
vo lahar lahar badan karvaTeñ badaltā rahā
lagī thī aag daraḳhtoñ ke paar dariyā meñ
maiñ dekhtā rahā aur āftāb Dhaltā rahā
bas ek shaam sar-e-dasht-e-karbalā utrī
phir us ke ba.ad gharoñ se alam nikaltā rahā
gulāb bahtā rahā ḳhvāhishoñ ke paanī meñ
havā.eñ chaltī rahīñ aur diyā machaltā rahā
ajab safar thā mire us ke darmiyāñ 'qaisar'
ġhubār uḌtā rahā aur sitārā chaltā rahā
main rakh hota gaya aur charagh jalta raha
charagh jalta raha aasman pighalta raha
main bund bund jala wasl ke kinare par
wo lahar lahar badan karwaTen badalta raha
lagi thi aag daraKHton ke par dariya mein
main dekhta raha aur aaftab Dhalta raha
bas ek sham sar-e-dasht-e-karbala utri
phir us ke baad gharon se alam nikalta raha
gulab bahta raha KHwahishon ke pani mein
hawaen chalti rahin aur diya machalta raha
ajab safar tha mere us ke darmiyan 'qaisar'
ghubar uDta raha aur sitara chalta raha
