patte tamam halqa-e-sarsar mein rah gae
patte tamām halqa-e-sarsar meñ rah ga.e
ham shāḳh-e-sabz meñ shajar-e-tar meñ rah ga.e
likh lenā is qadar vo safīne nahīñ mire
sāhil pe rah ga.e jo samundar meñ rah ga.e
us lazzat-e-safar ko maiñ ab un se kyā kahūñ
jo sāya-hā-e-sarv-o-sanobar meñ rah ga.e
āsār-e-yak-ḳharāba-e-ābād ho ke ham
sīnoñ meñ rah na paa.e to patthar meñ rah ga.e
bāhar hī chhoḌ aa.e vo chehra jo ḳhaas thā
ik aam aadmī kī tarah ghar meñ rah ga.e
rusvā unheñ badan ke taqāzoñ ne kar diyā
kyā log the jo TuuT ke pal bhar meñ rah ga.e
tum to anā kā ek jazīra ho soch lo
aise ka.ī jazīre samundar meñ rah ga.e
patte tamam halqa-e-sarsar mein rah gae
hum shaKH-e-sabz mein shajar-e-tar mein rah gae
likh lena is qadar wo safine nahin mere
sahil pe rah gae jo samundar mein rah gae
us lazzat-e-safar ko main ab un se kya kahun
jo saya-ha-e-sarw-o-sanobar mein rah gae
aasar-e-yak-KHaraba-e-abaad ho ke hum
sinon mein rah na pae to patthar mein rah gae
bahar hi chhoD aae wo chehra jo KHas tha
ek aam aadmi ki tarah ghar mein rah gae
ruswa unhen badan ke taqazon ne kar diya
kya log the jo TuT ke pal bhar mein rah gae
tum to ana ka ek jazira ho soch lo
aise kai jazire samundar mein rah gae
