ye bad-nasībī nahīñ hai to aur phir kyā hai

safar akele kiyā ham-safar ke hote hue

ye bad-nasibi nahin hai to aur phir kya hai

safar akele kiya ham-safar ke hote hue

yahāñ mazbūt se mazbūt lohā TuuT jaatā hai

ka.ī jhūTe ikaTThe hoñ to sachchā TuuT jaatā hai

yahan mazbut se mazbut loha TuT jata hai

kai jhuTe ikaTThe hon to sachcha TuT jata hai

ye intiqām hai yā ehtijāj hai kyā hai

ye log dhuup meñ kyuuñ haiñ shajar ke hote hue

ye intiqam hai ya ehtijaj hai kya hai

ye log dhup mein kyun hain shajar ke hote hue

merī sanjīda tabī.at pe bhī shak hai sab ko

baaz logoñ ne to bīmār samajh rakkhā hai

meri sanjida tabiat pe bhi shak hai sab ko

baz logon ne to bimar samajh rakkha hai

vo ek raat kī gardish meñ itnā haar gayā

libās pahne rahā aur badan utaar gayā

wo ek raat ki gardish mein itna haar gaya

libas pahne raha aur badan utar gaya
