pas-e-diwar zindan zindagi maujud rahti hai
pas-e-dīvār zindāñ zindagī maujūd rahtī hai
añdherī raat meñ bhī raushnī maujūd rahtī hai
sar-e-darbār-o-maqtal ek sā mausam anā kā hai
garāñ sar meñ hamesha sar-kashī maujūd rahtī hai
ravāñ rakhte haiñ ham ko dasht-e-dariyā dhuup darvāze
sarāboñ se safar meñ tishnagī maujūd rahtī hai
nazar se joḌ rakhtā hai ye dil aise bhī nazzāre
ki ba.ad-az-marg bhī hairāngī maujūd rahtī hai
bahut āsān rāheñ bhī bahut āsāñ nahīñ hotīñ
sabhī rastoñ meñ thoḌī gumrahī maujūd rahtī hai
mirī sochoñ meñ yuuñ rach bas ga.e haiñ shabnamī mausam
tavātur se tah-e-mizhgāñ namī maujūd rahtī hai
talātum meñ sadā rahtī haiñ kirneñ husn-e-tābāñ kī
nasīb-e-dushmanāñ kuchh barhamī maujūd rahtī hai
nikal paatā nahīñ maiñ kūcha-e-be-nām se 'azmī'
ki asbāb-e-safar meñ kuchh kamī maujūd rahtī hai
pas-e-diwar zindan zindagi maujud rahti hai
andheri raat mein bhi raushni maujud rahti hai
sar-e-darbar-o-maqtal ek sa mausam ana ka hai
garan sar mein hamesha sar-kashi maujud rahti hai
rawan rakhte hain hum ko dasht-e-dariya dhup darwaze
sarabon se safar mein tishnagi maujud rahti hai
nazar se joD rakhta hai ye dil aise bhi nazzare
ki baad-az-marg bhi hairangi maujud rahti hai
bahut aasan rahen bhi bahut aasan nahin hotin
sabhi raston mein thoDi gumrahi maujud rahti hai
meri sochon mein yun rach bas gae hain shabnami mausam
tawatur se tah-e-mizhgan nami maujud rahti hai
talatum mein sada rahti hain kirnen husn-e-taban ki
nasib-e-dushmanan kuchh barhami maujud rahti hai
nikal pata nahin main kucha-e-be-nam se 'azmi'
ki asbab-e-safar mein kuchh kami maujud rahti hai
