    phir vahī baḌhte hue rukte hue qadmoñ chaap

    phir vahī sahmī huī simTī huī sargoshiyāñ

    phir vahī bahkī huī mahkī huī āhaTeñ

    phir vahī gaatī lahrātī kuchh madhoshiyāñ

    zindagī tūfān thī sailāb thī bhauñchāl thī

    vaqt phir bhī karvaToñ par karvaTeñ letā rahā

    qāfile is raah par aate rahe jaate rahe

    rāhbar sab ko masāfat sila detā rahā

    vo tabassum jis ko rote haiñ ka.ī ujḌe suhāg

    ban rahā hai ik lachaktā ḳhaar apne paañv meñ

    vo nazar jo kal talak har jism ko Dastī rahī

    aaj sustāne lagī hai maslahat chhāñv meñ

    kitnī ummīdoñ ke madfan us ke hāthoñ ban chuke

    kitne armānoñ ke lāshe us ne ḳhud kafnā.e haiñ

    aah ye maqtal ki jis ke pāsbānī ke liye!

    kitne mustaqbil fanā ke dosh par lahrā.e haiñ

    kulfatoñ se tañg aa kar be-ḳhudī khoj meñ

    qāfile is raah par aate raheñ jaate raheñ

    rāhbar sab ko masāfat sila detā rahe

    rāh-rau apne tajassus sila paate raheñ

    phir wahi baDhte hue rukte hue qadmon ki chap

    phir wahi sahmi hui simTi hui sargoshiyan

    phir wahi bahki hui mahki hui si aahaTen

    phir wahi gati si lahraati si kuchh madhoshiyan

    zindagi tufan thi sailab thi bhaunchaal thi

    waqt phir bhi karwaTon par karwaTen leta raha

    qafile is rah par aate rahe jate rahe

    rahbar sab ko masafat ka sila deta raha

    wo tabassum jis ko rote hain kai ujDe suhag

    ban raha hai ek lachakta KHar apne panw mein

    wo nazar jo kal talak har jism ko Dasti rahi

    aaj sustane lagi hai maslahat ki chhanw mein

    kitni ummidon ke madfan us ke hathon ban chuke

    kitne armanon ke lashe us ne KHud kafnae hain

    aah ye maqtal ki jis ke pasbani ke liye!

    kitne mustaqbil fana ke dosh par lahrae hain

    kulfaton se tang aa kar be-KHudi ki khoj mein

    qafile is rah par aate rahen jate rahen

    rahbar sab ko masafat ka sila deta rahe

    rah-rau apne tajassus ka sila pate rahen
