pas mein rah ke nigahon se bachae rakhna
paas meñ rah ke nigāhoñ se bachā.e rakhnā
apne dukh-dard ko apnoñ se chhupā.e rakhnā
ham guḌā-bhāg ghaTā-joḌ nahīñ kar paate
apnī aadat meñ hai rishtoñ ko nibhā.e rakhnā
ḳhud ko ḳhud se hī chhupāne kā tarīqa hai ye
apnī bātoñ meñ sadā ḳhud ko lagā.e rakhnā
pyaas jab haath uThā.e to na ḳhālī jaa.e
bādalo itnī to ummīd jagā.e rakhnā
āñdhiyoñ se kabhī bujhtī nahīñ ummīd kī lau
yuuñ hī ehsās ke dīpak ko jalā.e rakhnā
kuchh bhale log kahānī kī tarah milte haiñ
dukh kisī kā bhī ho kāñdhe pe uThā.e rakhnā
pas mein rah ke nigahon se bachae rakhna
apne dukh-dard ko apnon se chhupae rakhna
hum guDa-bhag ghaTa-joD nahin kar pate
apni aadat mein hai rishton ko nibhae rakhna
KHud ko KHud se hi chhupane ka tariqa hai ye
apni baaton mein sada KHud ko lagae rakhna
pyas jab hath uThae to na KHali jae
baadalo itni to ummid jagae rakhna
aandhiyon se kabhi bujhti nahin ummid ki lau
yun hi ehsas ke dipak ko jalae rakhna
kuchh bhale log kahani ki tarah milte hain
dukh kisi ka bhi ho kandhe pe uThae rakhna
