tere siwa kisi ki tamanna karunga main

tere sivā kisī kī tamannā karūñgā maiñ

aisā kabhī huā hai jo aisā karūñgā maiñ

go ġham aziiz hai mujhe tere firāq kā

phir bhī is imtihān kā shikva karūñgā maiñ

āñkhoñ ko ashk o ḳhuuñ bhī farāham karūñgā maiñ

dil ke liye bhī dard muhayyā karūñgā maiñ

rāhat bhī rañj, rañj bhī rāhat ho jab to phir

kyā etibār-e-ḳhvāhish-e-duniyā karūñgā maiñ

rakkhā hai kyā jahān meñ ye aur baat hai

ye aur baat hai ki taqāzā karūñgā maiñ

ye rahguzar ki jā-e-qayām-e-qarār thī

ya.anī ab us galī se bhī guzrā karūñgā maiñ

ya.anī kuchh is tarah ki tujhe bhī ḳhabar na ho

is ehtiyāt se tujhe dekhā karūñgā maiñ

hai dekhne kī chiiz to ye iltifāt bhī

dekhoge tum gurez bhī aisā karūñgā maiñ

hairān o dil-shikasta huuñ is hāl-e-zār par

kab jāntā thā apnā tamāshā karūñgā maiñ

haañ khīñch lūñgā vaqt kī zanjīr paañv se

ab ke bahār aa.ī to aisā karūñgā maiñ

tere siwa kisi ki tamanna karunga main

aisa kabhi hua hai jo aisa karunga main

go gham aziz hai mujhe tere firaq ka

phir bhi is imtihan ka shikwa karunga main

aankhon ko ashk o KHun bhi faraham karunga main

dil ke liye bhi dard muhayya karunga main

rahat bhi ranj, ranj bhi rahat ho jab to phir

kya etibar-e-KHwahish-e-duniya karunga main

rakkha hai kya jahan mein ye aur baat hai

ye aur baat hai ki taqaza karunga main

ye rahguzar ki ja-e-qayam-e-qarar thi

yani ab us gali se bhi guzra karunga main

yani kuchh is tarah ki tujhe bhi KHabar na ho

is ehtiyat se tujhe dekha karunga main

hai dekhne ki chiz to ye iltifat bhi

dekhoge tum gurez bhi aisa karunga main

hairan o dil-shikasta hun is haal-e-zar par

kab jaanta tha apna tamasha karunga main

han khinch lunga waqt ki zanjir panw se

ab ke bahaar aai to aisa karunga main
