mahmil hai matlub na laila mangta hai
mahmil hai matlūb na lailā māñgtā hai
chāk-girebāñ qais to sahrā māñgtā hai
hijr sar-e-vīrāna-e-jāñ bhī mohr-ba-lab
vasl galī-kūchoñ meñ charchā māñgtā hai
is ā.īna-ḳhāne kā har raqs-kunāñ
apne sāmne apnā tamāshā māñgtā hai
nā-ummīdī laakh qafas ījād kare
tā.ir-e-dil parvāz-e-tamannā māñgtā hai
umr bitātā hai imroz meñ aur makīñ
darvāze par dastak-e-fardā māñgtā hai
dhuup javānī kā yārāna apnī jagah
thak jaatā hai jism to saaya māñgtā hai
bāñdh sag-e-āvāra chaukhaT ke andar
ek musāfir tujh se rastā māñgtā hai
log tavālat se ghabrāte haiñ varna
ek zamāna sīdhā rastā māñgtā hai
mahmil hai matlub na laila mangta hai
chaak-gireban qais to sahra mangta hai
hijr sar-e-virana-e-jaan bhi mohr-ba-lab
wasl gali-kuchon mein charcha mangta hai
is aaina-KHane ka har raqs-kunan
apne samne apna tamasha mangta hai
na-ummidi lakh qafas ijad kare
tair-e-dil parwaz-e-tamanna mangta hai
umr bitata hai imroz mein aur makin
darwaze par dastak-e-farda mangta hai
dhup jawani ka yarana apni jagah
thak jata hai jism to saya mangta hai
bandh sag-e-awara chaukhaT ke andar
ek musafir tujh se rasta mangta hai
log tawalat se ghabraate hain warna
ek zamana sidha rasta mangta hai
