nikhat-e-turra-e-mushkin jo saba lai hai

nik.hat-e-turra-e-mushkīñ jo sabā laa.ī hai

koī āvāra huā hai koī saudā.ī hai

be-ḳhudī se hai yahāñ be-ḳhabarī kā aalam

ḳhud-numā.ī ko vahāñ shaġhl-e-ḳhud-ārā.ī hai

apnī hī jalvagarī hai ye koī aur nahīñ

ġhaur se dekh agar aañkh meñ bīnā.ī hai

hai mujhe kashmakash-e-sa.ī-o-talab se nafrat

dil mirā tark-e-tamannā kā tamannā.ī hai

juz dil-e-pāk na paayā haram-e-ḳhās kahīñ

dair-o-ka.aba meñ abas nāsiya-farsā.ī hai

naaz kī jalvagarī ke liye manzar hai niyāz

nā-tavānī mirī ham-rañg-e-tavānā.ī hai

jab tabī.at hī na hāzir ho to be-sūd hai fikr

sher-goī to kahāñ qāfiya-paimā.ī hai

muñh pe lā.ūñ to ye kam-zarf bahak jaa.eñ abhī

baat jo pīr-e-ḳharābāt ne samjhā.ī hai

ḳhud munādī o munādā huuñ na ġhaibat na huzūr

ālam-e-ġhaib se yuuñ dil meñ nidā aa.ī hai

dil ye kahtā hai ki hāsil kī hai tahsīl abas

na tamannā koī shai hai na tamannā.ī hai

nikhat-e-turra-e-mushkin jo saba lai hai

koi aawara hua hai koi saudai hai

be-KHudi se hai yahan be-KHabari ka aalam

KHud-numai ko wahan shaghl-e-KHud-arai hai

apni hi jalwagari hai ye koi aur nahin

ghaur se dekh agar aankh mein binai hai

hai mujhe kashmakash-e-sai-o-talab se nafrat

dil mera tark-e-tamanna ka tamannai hai

juz dil-e-pak na paya haram-e-KHas kahin

dair-o-kaba mein abas nasiya-farsai hai

naz ki jalwagari ke liye manzar hai niyaz

na-tawani meri ham-rang-e-tawanai hai

jab tabiat hi na hazir ho to be-sud hai fikr

sher-goi to kahan qafiya-paimai hai

munh pe laun to ye kam-zarf bahak jaen abhi

baat jo pir-e-KHarabaat ne samjhai hai

KHud munadi o munada hun na ghaibat na huzur

aalam-e-ghaib se yun dil mein nida aai hai

dil ye kahta hai ki hasil ki hai tahsil abas

na tamanna koi shai hai na tamannai hai
