ab KHanuman-KHarab ki manzil yahan nahin
ab ḳhānumāñ-ḳharāb kī manzil yahāñ nahīñ
kahne ko āshiyāñ hai magar āshiyāñ nahīñ
ishq-e-sitam-navāz kī duniyā badal ga.ī
husn-e-vafā-shanās bhī kuchh bad-gumāñ nahīñ
mere sanam-kade meñ ka.ī aur but bhī haiñ
ik merī zindagī ke tumhīñ rāz-dāñ nahīñ
tum se bichhaḌ ke mujh ko sahārā to mil gayā
ye aur baat hai ki maiñ kuchh shādmāñ nahīñ
apne hasīn ḳhvāb kī tābīr ḳhud kare
itnā to mo'tabar ye dil-e-nā-tavāñ nahīñ
zulf-e-darāz qissa-e-ġham meñ ulajh na jaa.e
andeshā-hā-e-ishq kahāñ haiñ kahāñ nahīñ
har har qadam pe kitne sitāre bikhar ga.e
lekin rah-e-hayāt abhī kahkashāñ nahīñ
sailāb-e-zindagī ke sahāre baḌhe chalo
sāhil pe rahne vāloñ kā nām-o-nishāñ nahīñ
ab KHanuman-KHarab ki manzil yahan nahin
kahne ko aashiyan hai magar aashiyan nahin
ishq-e-sitam-nawaz ki duniya badal gai
husn-e-wafa-shanas bhi kuchh bad-guman nahin
mere sanam-kade mein kai aur but bhi hain
ek meri zindagi ke tumhin raaz-dan nahin
tum se bichhaD ke mujh ko sahaara to mil gaya
ye aur baat hai ki main kuchh shadman nahin
apne hasin KHwab ki tabir KHud kare
itna to mo'tabar ye dil-e-na-tawan nahin
zulf-e-daraaz qissa-e-gham mein ulajh na jae
andesha-ha-e-ishq kahan hain kahan nahin
har har qadam pe kitne sitare bikhar gae
lekin rah-e-hayat abhi kahkashan nahin
sailab-e-zindagi ke sahaare baDhe chalo
sahil pe rahne walon ka nam-o-nishan nahin
