nashili chhanw mein bite hue zamanon ko
nashīlī chhāñv meñ biite hue zamānoñ ko
lagā do aag ajal ke nigār-ḳhānoñ ko
batā rahe haiñ jabīn-e-hayāt ke tevar
panāh mil nahīñ saktī ab āstānoñ ko
diye jalāo ki insāniyat ne toḌ diyā
jahān-e-zar ke rū-pahle tilism-ḳhānoñ ko
har ek gaam pe mash.al dikhā rahī hai hayāt
sitam kī aañch meñ nikhre hue zamānoñ ko
hazār dār-o-rasan Dagmagā nahīñ sakte
ajal kī god meñ khele hue javānoñ ko
bahut qarīb hai vo daur ḳhush-gavār ki jab
nigār-e-amn sajā.egī kār-ḳhānoñ ko
ḳhud aage baḌh ke qadam chūmtī hai manzil-e-shauq
ye kis ne raah dikhā.ī hai kārvānoñ ko
nashili chhanw mein bite hue zamanon ko
laga do aag ajal ke nigar-KHanon ko
bata rahe hain jabin-e-hayat ke tewar
panah mil nahin sakti ab aastanon ko
diye jalao ki insaniyat ne toD diya
jahan-e-zar ke ru-pahle tilism-KHanon ko
har ek gam pe mashal dikha rahi hai hayat
sitam ki aanch mein nikhre hue zamanon ko
hazar dar-o-rasan Dagmaga nahin sakte
ajal ki god mein khele hue jawanon ko
bahut qarib hai wo daur KHush-gawar ki jab
nigar-e-amn sajaegi kar-KHanon ko
KHud aage baDh ke qadam chumti hai manzil-e-shauq
ye kis ne rah dikhai hai karwanon ko
