tum kab the qarib itne main kab dur raha hun
tum kab the qarīb itne maiñ kab duur rahā huuñ
chhoḌo na karo baat ki maiñ tum se ḳhafā huuñ
rahne do ki ab tum bhī mujhe paḌh na sakoge
barsāt meñ kāġhaz kī tarah bhiig gayā huuñ
sau baar girah de ke kisī aas ne joḌā
sau baar maiñ dhāge kī tarah TuuT chukā huuñ
jā.egā jahāñ tū mirī āvāz sunegā
maiñ chor kī mānind tire dil meñ chhupā huuñ
ik nuqte pe aa kar bhī ham-āhañg nahīñ haiñ
tū apnā fasāna hai to maiñ apnī sadā huuñ
chheḌo na abhī shāḳh-e-shikasta kā fasāna
Thahro maiñ abhī raqs-e-sabā dekh rahā huuñ
manzil kā patā jis ne diyā thā mujhe 'bāqī'
us shaḳhs se raste meñ ka.ī baar milā huuñ
tum kab the qarib itne main kab dur raha hun
chhoDo na karo baat ki main tum se KHafa hun
rahne do ki ab tum bhi mujhe paDh na sakoge
barsat mein kaghaz ki tarah bhig gaya hun
sau bar girah de ke kisi aas ne joDa
sau bar main dhage ki tarah TuT chuka hun
jaega jahan tu meri aawaz sunega
main chor ki manind tere dil mein chhupa hun
ek nuqte pe aa kar bhi ham-ahang nahin hain
tu apna fasana hai to main apni sada hun
chheDo na abhi shaKH-e-shikasta ka fasana
Thahro main abhi raqs-e-saba dekh raha hun
manzil ka pata jis ne diya tha mujhe 'baqi'
us shaKHs se raste mein kai bar mila hun
