tamam aalam se moD kar munh main apne andar sama gaya hun
tamām aalam se moḌ kar muñh maiñ apne andar samā gayā huuñ
mujhe na āvāz de zamāne maiñ apnī āvāz sun rahā huuñ
tazād-e-hastī kā falsafa huuñ uruuj o pastī kā aa.inā huuñ
uThā huā ik ġhurūr-e-sar huuñ miTā huā ek naqsh-e-pā huuñ
ho kyā ta.ayyun mirī hadoñ kā shumār kyā merī vus.atoñ kā
hazāroñ aalam base haiñ mujh meñ maiñ behad-o-be-karāñ ḳhalā huuñ
azāb-e-ehsās-o-āgahī ke vo dil-shikan ḳhvāb-pāsh lamhe
hazār ā.īne TūTte haiñ maiñ jab bhī ā.īna dekhtā huuñ
maiñ nā-shunīda sadā-e-sahrā banūñgā āvāz-e-vaqt 'kaifī'
zabān-e-ālam pe ā.ūñgā kal maiñ aaj ik harf-e-nārsā huuñ
tamam aalam se moD kar munh main apne andar sama gaya hun
mujhe na aawaz de zamane main apni aawaz sun raha hun
tazad-e-hasti ka falsafa hun uruj o pasti ka aaina hun
uTha hua ek ghurur-e-sar hun miTa hua ek naqsh-e-pa hun
ho kya tayyun meri hadon ka shumar kya meri wusaton ka
hazaron aalam base hain mujh mein main behad-o-be-karan KHala hun
azab-e-ehsas-o-agahi ke wo dil-shikan KHwab-pash lamhe
hazar aaine TuTte hain main jab bhi aaina dekhta hun
main na-shunida sada-e-sahra banunga aawaz-e-waqt 'kaifi'
zaban-e-alam pe aaunga kal main aaj ek harf-e-narsa hun
