wafaon ke irade wusat-e-manzil mein rahte hain
vafāoñ ke irāde vus.at-e-manzil meñ rahte haiñ
pas-o-pesh-e-sitam pesh-o-pas-e-mahmil meñ rahte haiñ
nuqūsh-e-rah-rav-e-manzil rah-e-manzil meñ rahte haiñ
chakoroñ ke nishān-e-ġham mah-e-kāmil meñ rahte haiñ
ġham-e-ishq-e-haqīqī be-asar ho jaa.e nā-mumkin
numāyāñ laġhzish-o-ra.asha kaf-e-qātil meñ rahte haiñ
jo armāñ lab pe aa ke mojib-e-qatl-e-ġharībāñ haiñ
vahī armān poshīda dil-e-qātil meñ rahte haiñ
hazāroñ kashtiyāñ us paar ho jaatī haiñ sāhil ke
hamāre vāste tūfāñ chhupe sāhil meñ rahte haiñ
hamesha zindagī kaTtī rahī tārīk rātoñ meñ
na jaane jvār-bhāTe kyuuñ hamāre dil meñ rahte haiñ
zamāna ke havādis se na Dar hargiz muqābil aa
jo ahl-e-dil haiñ duniyā meñ vahī mushkil meñ rahte haiñ
mai-e-rañgīñ surūd-e-shoḳh raqs-e-dil-rubā shab ko
sahar ko 'soz' furqat ke nishāñ mahfil meñ rahte haiñ
wafaon ke irade wusat-e-manzil mein rahte hain
pas-o-pesh-e-sitam pesh-o-pas-e-mahmil mein rahte hain
nuqush-e-rah-raw-e-manzil rah-e-manzil mein rahte hain
chakoron ke nishan-e-gham mah-e-kaamil mein rahte hain
gham-e-ishq-e-haqiqi be-asar ho jae na-mumkin
numayan laghzish-o-rasha kaf-e-qatil mein rahte hain
jo arman lab pe aa ke mojib-e-qatl-e-ghariban hain
wahi arman poshida dil-e-qatil mein rahte hain
hazaron kashtiyan us par ho jati hain sahil ke
hamare waste tufan chhupe sahil mein rahte hain
hamesha zindagi kaTti rahi tarik raaton mein
na jaane jwar-bhaTe kyun hamare dil mein rahte hain
zamana ke hawadis se na Dar hargiz muqabil aa
jo ahl-e-dil hain duniya mein wahi mushkil mein rahte hain
mai-e-rangin surud-e-shoKH raqs-e-dil-ruba shab ko
sahar ko 'soz' furqat ke nishan mahfil mein rahte hain
