raat bhi humne ro-ro kaTi din bhi so ke KHarab kiya
raat bhī ham ne ro-ro kaaTī din bhī so ke ḳharāb kiyā
khulne vaalī āñkhoñ ko bhī amdan mahv-e-ḳhvāb kiyā
ek hī roTī ko dho dho kar piite rahe ham shām-o-sahar
saarī umr meñ shāyad ham ne ek hī kār-e-savāb kiyā
rizq to hai maqsūm hamārā us ko duā kī hājat kyuuñ
Dhāñk ke chehra dast-e-duā se ham ne ḳhud se ḳhitāb kiyā
us kī nazar se tiir jo niklā Thiik nishāne par baiThā
ghāyal aahū ban kar ham ne ban ban ko shādāb kiyā
ashk bahā dene ke hunar meñ saanī us kā koī nahīñ
ik din hañste hañste us ne sab ko tah-e-sailāb kiyā
bachpan meñ dekhā thā ham ne maañ kā chehra yaad nahīñ
bū-alī-sīnā ban kar ham ne us ke ruḳh ko kitāb kiyā
raat bhi hum ne ro-ro kaTi din bhi so ke KHarab kiya
khulne wali aankhon ko bhi amdan mahw-e-KHwab kiya
ek hi roTi ko dho dho kar pite rahe hum sham-o-sahar
sari umr mein shayad hum ne ek hi kar-e-sawab kiya
rizq to hai maqsum hamara us ko dua ki hajat kyun
Dhank ke chehra dast-e-dua se hum ne KHud se KHitab kiya
us ki nazar se tir jo nikla Thik nishane par baiTha
ghayal aahu ban kar hum ne ban ban ko shadab kiya
ashk baha dene ke hunar mein sani us ka koi nahin
ek din hanste hanste us ne sab ko tah-e-sailab kiya
bachpan mein dekha tha hum ne man ka chehra yaad nahin
bu-ali-sina ban kar hum ne us ke ruKH ko kitab kiya
