uski aamad mujhe KHushiyon ka pata deti hai

us kī aamad mujhe ḳhushiyoñ kā pata detī hai

ik nazar us kī mirā ranj bhulā detī hai

zindagī roz 'atā kartī hai ik zaḳhm nayā

saañs lene kī mujhe ḳhuub sazā detī hai

bebasī merī uḌātī hai mirā ḳhuub mazāq

bhuuk kam-zarf ke aage bhī jhukā detī hai

lauT jaatī huuñ maiñ phir andhī Dagar kī jānib

yaad terī mujhe ḳhāmosh sadā detī hai

jiine detī hī nahīñ talḳh haqīqat mujh ko

mere ḳhvāboñ kī ye zanjīr hilā detī hai

kār-e-duniyā se nahīñ hotā hai ehsās-e-thakan

be-ruḳhī apnoñ kī insāñ ko thakā detī hai

Dūbtī kashtī ko miltā hai kināra phir se

koī ummīd nayā muzhda sunā detī hai

raah meñ laakh bichhā.e koī kāñTe us ke

dil se dushman ko bhī 'farzāna' du'ā detī hai

us ki aamad mujhe KHushiyon ka pata deti hai

ek nazar us ki mera ranj bhula deti hai

zindagi roz 'ata karti hai ek zaKHm naya

sans lene ki mujhe KHub saza deti hai

bebasi meri uDati hai mera KHub mazaq

bhuk kam-zarf ke aage bhi jhuka deti hai

lauT jati hun main phir andhi Dagar ki jaanib

yaad teri mujhe KHamosh sada deti hai

jine deti hi nahin talKH haqiqat mujh ko

mere KHwabon ki ye zanjir hila deti hai

kar-e-duniya se nahin hota hai ehsas-e-thakan

be-ruKHi apnon ki insan ko thaka deti hai

Dubti kashti ko milta hai kinara phir se

koi ummid naya muzhda suna deti hai

rah mein lakh bichhae koi kanTe us ke

dil se dushman ko bhi 'farzana' du'a deti hai
