muhit misl-e-asman zamin-e-fikr-o-fan pe hun
muhīt misl-e-āsmāñ zamīn-e-fikr-o-fan pe huuñ
sukūt kā sabab hai ye maqām-e-lā-suḳhan pe huuñ
fazā-e-lā-sabāt meñ sarā-e-be-jihāt meñ
musāfirāna ḳhanda-rez vaqt kī thakan pe huuñ
mire nasīb kī sahar ġhurūb ho ga.ī kahāñ
nazar jamā.e der se tirī kiran kiran pe huuñ
sajā.ūñ vo chaman jinheñ ḳhizāñ kabhī na chhū sake
tirī tarah jo hukmarāñ shaguft har chaman pe huuñ
azīz-tar hai tesha-e-hunar ġhubār-e-dard se
tarīq-e-qais par nahīñ tarīq-e-koh-kan pe huuñ
hujūm-e-sad-ḳhayāl se najāt mil sake agar
to hāsidāna mo'tariz kisī kī anjuman pe huuñ
visāl hī visāl hai firāq ab muhāl hai
maiñ tere har libās kī tarah tire badan pe huuñ
kisī ke shajra-e-suḳhan se nisbat-e-suḳhan nahīñ
maiñ aap apnā mudda.ī siyādat-e-suḳhan pe huuñ
muhit misl-e-asman zamin-e-fikr-o-fan pe hun
sukut ka sabab hai ye maqam-e-la-suKHan pe hun
faza-e-la-sabaat mein sara-e-be-jihat mein
musafirana KHanda-rez waqt ki thakan pe hun
mere nasib ki sahar ghurub ho gai kahan
nazar jamae der se teri kiran kiran pe hun
sajaun wo chaman jinhen KHizan kabhi na chhu sake
teri tarah jo hukmaran shaguft har chaman pe hun
aziz-tar hai tesha-e-hunar ghubar-e-dard se
tariq-e-qais par nahin tariq-e-koh-kan pe hun
hujum-e-sad-KHayal se najat mil sake agar
to hasidana mo'tariz kisi ki anjuman pe hun
visal hi visal hai firaq ab muhaal hai
main tere har libas ki tarah tere badan pe hun
kisi ke shajra-e-suKHan se nisbat-e-suKHan nahin
main aap apna muddai siyaadat-e-suKHan pe hun
