supurd-e-gham-zadagan-e-saf-e-wafa hua main
supurd-e-ġham-zadagān-e-saf-e-vafā huā maiñ
paḌā huuñ umr kī dīvār se girā huā maiñ
ajiib soch sī aur us pe sochtā huā maiñ
ki TūTtā tirī hairat meñ aa.inā huā maiñ
kahīñ maiñ koh pe farhād aur dasht meñ qais
vajūd-e-ishq meñ huuñ ḳhud ko DhūñDhtā huā maiñ
jise bhī milnā hai mujh se vo intizār kare
na jaane kab palaT aa.uuñ kahīñ gayā huā maiñ
na mil sakā koī afsos vaqt par mujh ko
kisī ko mil na sakā vaqt se kaTā huā maiñ
tamām ham-nafasāñ qat.a kar ga.e manzil
bas ik musāfir-e-rah, rah gayā bachā huā maiñ
tamām umr yūñhī tarz-e-būd-o-bāsh rahī
kahīñ charāġh banā maiñ kahīñ havā huā maiñ
samajh na sahl zamāne kī gardishoñ ke ba.ad
huā maiñ ḳhud ko farāham mujhe atā huā maiñ
ajiib kaifiyat-e-intishār meñ huuñ ravāñ
ġhubār sā huuñ kisī ḳhaak se uḌā huā maiñ
supurd-e-gham-zadagan-e-saf-e-wafa hua main
paDa hun umr ki diwar se gira hua main
ajib soch si aur us pe sochta hua main
ki TuTta teri hairat mein aaina hua main
kahin main koh pe farhad aur dasht mein qais
wajud-e-ishq mein hun KHud ko DhunDhta hua main
jise bhi milna hai mujh se wo intizar kare
na jaane kab palaT aaun kahin gaya hua main
na mil saka koi afsos waqt par mujh ko
kisi ko mil na saka waqt se kaTa hua main
tamam ham-nafasan qata kar gae manzil
bas ek musafir-e-rah, rah gaya bacha hua main
tamam umr yunhi tarz-e-bud-o-bash rahi
kahin charagh bana main kahin hawa hua main
samajh na sahl zamane ki gardishon ke baad
hua main KHud ko faraham mujhe ata hua main
ajib kaifiyat-e-intishaar mein hun rawan
ghubar sa hun kisi KHak se uDa hua main
