jaisi ab hai isi haalat mein nahin rah sakta
jaisī ab hai isī hālat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
maiñ hamesha to mohabbat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
khul ke ro bhī sakūñ aur hañs bhī sakūñ jī bhar ke
abhī itnī bhī farāġhat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
dil se bāhar nikal aanā mirī majbūrī hai
maiñ to is shor-e-qayāmat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
kuuch kar jaa.eñ jahāñ se mire dushman ai dost
maiñ vahāñ bhī kisī sūrat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
koī ḳhatra hai mujhe aur tarah kā ai dost
maiñ jo ab terī hifāzat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
chāhiye hai mujhe kuchh aur hī māhaul ki maiñ
aur ab apnī rifāqat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
kuchh bhī maiñ kartā-karātā to nahīñ huuñ lekin
bāvajūd is ke farāġhat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
shak mujhe yuuñ to ḳhayānat kā nahīñ hai koī
maiñ kisī kī bhī amānat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
vaise rahne ko to ḳhush-bāsh hī rahtā huuñ 'zafar'
sach jo pūchheñ to haqīqat meñ nahīñ rah saktā
jaisi ab hai isi haalat mein nahin rah sakta
main hamesha to mohabbat mein nahin rah sakta
khul ke ro bhi sakun aur hans bhi sakun ji bhar ke
abhi itni bhi faraghat mein nahin rah sakta
dil se bahar nikal aana meri majburi hai
main to is shor-e-qayamat mein nahin rah sakta
kuch kar jaen jahan se mere dushman ai dost
main wahan bhi kisi surat mein nahin rah sakta
koi KHatra hai mujhe aur tarah ka ai dost
main jo ab teri hifazat mein nahin rah sakta
chahiye hai mujhe kuchh aur hi mahaul ki main
aur ab apni rifaqat mein nahin rah sakta
kuchh bhi main karta-karaata to nahin hun lekin
bawajud is ke faraghat mein nahin rah sakta
shak mujhe yun to KHayanat ka nahin hai koi
main kisi ki bhi amanat mein nahin rah sakta
waise rahne ko to KHush-bash hi rahta hun 'zafar'
sach jo puchhen to haqiqat mein nahin rah sakta
