    maiñ ne apnī zindagī

    ḳhvāb dekhne laḌne aur ḳhaar chunñe meñ zaa.e.a

    mujhe afsos hai

    ḳhvāb mujhe ḳhush karte rahe

    aur mohabbat ke lamhoñ ko multavī karte rahe

    bahut ma.amūlī bātoñ ke liye

    mujhe zalīl kiyā gayā

    aur mere taḳhayyul ne

    mujhe un logoñ se tavīl jañgoñ meñ zaa.e.a kiyā

    jinheñ chand lafzoñ se shikast saktī thī

    merī ibādat-gāh ko kisī ghar se aag nahīñ milī

    mujhe ātish-dān ko raushan rakhne tarīqa jānñe ke liye

    apne dil ko jalānā paḌā

    aur itnī duur tak jaanā paḌā

    ki ibādat-gāh ko vāpas aanā be-ma.anī Thahrā

    kisī ne mujhe koī tarīqa nahīñ batāyā

    merī bad-qismatī se pahle

    koī is raah par nahīñ aayā

    jahāñ āzād havā.eñ mere liye kāñTe ugātī rahīñ

    aur merī zid tumhāre liye rāste āsān kartī rahī

    mujhe afsos hai

    merī zaḳhmī uñgliyāñ jab tak tumhāre liye

    phūloñ haar banā pā.eñgī

    phuul murjhā chuke hoñge

    aur tum bahut se tahā.if le kar

    apnī kāmyāb mohabbat jashn manāne chuke hoge

    main ne apni zindagi

    KHwab dekhne laDne aur KHar chunne mein zaea ki

    mujhe afsos hai

    KHwab mujhe KHush karte rahe

    aur mohabbat ke lamhon ko multawi karte rahe

    bahut mamuli baaton ke liye

    mujhe zalil kiya gaya

    aur mere taKHayyul ne

    mujhe un logon se tawil jangon mein zaea kiya

    jinhen chand lafzon se shikast ki ja sakti thi

    meri ibaadat-gah ko kisi ghar se aag nahin mili

    mujhe aatish-dan ko raushan rakhne ka tariqa jaanne ke liye

    apne dil ko jalana paDa

    aur itni dur tak jaana paDa

    ki ibaadat-gah ko wapas aana be-mani Thahra

    kisi ne mujhe koi tariqa nahin bataya

    meri bad-qismati se pahle

    koi is rah par nahin aaya

    jahan aazad hawaen mere liye kanTe ugati rahin

    aur meri zid tumhaare liye raste aasan karti rahi

    mujhe afsos hai

    meri zaKHmi ungliyan jab tak tumhaare liye

    phulon ka haar bana paengi

    phul murjha chuke honge

    aur tum bahut se tahaif le kar

    apni kaamyab mohabbat ka jashn manane ja chuke hoge
