sada ye kis ki hai jo dur se bulae mujhe

sadā ye kis kī hai jo duur se bulā.e mujhe

qarīb jā.ūñ to kuchh bhī nazar na aa.e mujhe

maiñ bujhte bujhte dhueñ kī lakīr chhoḌūñgā

ye bād-e-tund zarā soch kar bujhā.e mujhe

ġhurūb ke nahīñ āsār ye to phir kyā haiñ

ki jism se baḌe lagte haiñ ab to saa.e mujhe

jalā ho dhuup meñ aur ḳhāl-o-ḳhad na bigḌe hoñ

bhare jahāñ meñ vo ik shaḳhs to dikhā.e mujhe

kisī ke lams se kundan maiñ ho to saktā huuñ

magar ye shart koī haath to lagā.e mujhe

sada ye kis ki hai jo dur se bulae mujhe

qarib jaun to kuchh bhi nazar na aae mujhe

main bujhte bujhte dhuen ki lakir chhoDunga

ye baad-e-tund zara soch kar bujhae mujhe

ghurub ke nahin aasar ye to phir kya hain

ki jism se baDe lagte hain ab to sae mujhe

jala ho dhup mein aur KHal-o-KHad na bigDe hon

bhare jahan mein wo ek shaKHs to dikhae mujhe

kisi ke lams se kundan main ho to sakta hun

magar ye shart koi hath to lagae mujhe
