nae sire se koi safar aaghaz nahin karta
na.e sire se koī safar āġhāz nahīñ kartā
jaane kyuuñ ab dil merā parvāz nahīñ kartā
kitnī burī aadat hai maiñ ḳhāmosh hī rahtā huuñ
jab tak mujh se koī suḳhan āġhāz nahīñ kartā
kaise zinda rahtā huuñ maiñ zahr ko pī kar ab
dīvār-o-dar ko bhī to hamrāz nahīñ kartā
taaza havā ke jhoñke aksar aate rahte haiñ
āḳhir kyuuñ maiñ apne darīche baaz nahīñ kartā
jaane kaisā raag bajānā siikh liyā dil ne
merī sañgat ab koī dam-sāz nahīñ kartā
ahl-e-hunar kī āñkhoñ meñ kyuuñ chubhtā rahtā huuñ
maiñ to apnī be-hunarī par naaz nahīñ kartā
mujh meñ kuchh hogā to duniyā ḳhud jhuk jā.egī
maiñ neze par sar apnā afrāz nahīñ kartā
vaqt ke saare chakkar haiñ ye 'ālam'-jī varna
yahāñ kisī ko koī nazar-andāz nahīñ kartā
nae sire se koi safar aaghaz nahin karta
jaane kyun ab dil mera parwaz nahin karta
kitni buri aadat hai main KHamosh hi rahta hun
jab tak mujh se koi suKHan aaghaz nahin karta
kaise zinda rahta hun main zahr ko pi kar ab
diwar-o-dar ko bhi to hamraaz nahin karta
taza hawa ke jhonke aksar aate rahte hain
aaKHir kyun main apne dariche baz nahin karta
jaane kaisa rag bajaana sikh liya dil ne
meri sangat ab koi dam-saz nahin karta
ahl-e-hunar ki aankhon mein kyun chubhta rahta hun
main to apni be-hunari par naz nahin karta
mujh mein kuchh hoga to duniya KHud jhuk jaegi
main neze par sar apna afraaz nahin karta
waqt ke sare chakkar hain ye 'alam'-ji warna
yahan kisi ko koi nazar-andaz nahin karta
