sang-dil hun is qadar aankhen bhigo sakta nahin
sañg-dil huuñ is qadar āñkheñ bhigo saktā nahīñ
maiñ ki pathrīlī zamīñ meñ phuul bo saktā nahīñ
lag chuke haiñ dāmanoñ par jitne rusvā.ī ke daaġh
in ko aañsū kyā samundar tak bhī dho saktā nahīñ
ek do dukh hoñ to phir un se karūñ jī-bhar ke pyaar
sab ko siine se lagā luuñ ye to ho saktā nahīñ
terī barbādī pe ab aañsū bahā.ūñ kis liye
maiñ to ḳhud apnī tabāhī par bhī ro saktā nahīñ
jis ne samjhā ho hamesha dostī ko kārobār
dosto vo to kisī kā dost ho saktā nahīñ
ḳhvāhishoñ kī nazr kar duuñ kis liye anmol ashk
kachche dhāgoñ meñ koī motī piro saktā nahīñ
maiñ tire dar kā bhikārī tū mire dar kā faqīr
aadmī is daur meñ ḳhuddār ho saktā nahīñ
mujh ko itnā bhī nahīñ hai surḳh-rū hone kā shauq
be-sabab taaza lahū kī fasl bo saktā nahīñ
yaad ke sho.aloñ pe jaltā hai agar merā badan
oḌh kar phūloñ kī chādar tū bhī so saktā nahīñ
haath jis se kuchh na aa.e us kī ḳhvāhish kyuuñ karūñ
duudh kī mānind maiñ paanī bilo saktā nahīñ
sang-dil hun is qadar aankhen bhigo sakta nahin
main ki pathrili zamin mein phul bo sakta nahin
lag chuke hain damanon par jitne ruswai ke dagh
in ko aansu kya samundar tak bhi dho sakta nahin
ek do dukh hon to phir un se karun ji-bhar ke pyar
sab ko sine se laga lun ye to ho sakta nahin
teri barbaadi pe ab aansu bahaun kis liye
main to KHud apni tabahi par bhi ro sakta nahin
jis ne samjha ho hamesha dosti ko karobar
dosto wo to kisi ka dost ho sakta nahin
KHwahishon ki nazr kar dun kis liye anmol ashk
kachche dhagon mein koi moti piro sakta nahin
main tere dar ka bhikari tu mere dar ka faqir
aadmi is daur mein KHuddar ho sakta nahin
mujh ko itna bhi nahin hai surKH-ru hone ka shauq
be-sabab taza lahu ki fasl bo sakta nahin
yaad ke shoalon pe jalta hai agar mera badan
oDh kar phulon ki chadar tu bhi so sakta nahin
hath jis se kuchh na aae us ki KHwahish kyun karun
dudh ki manind main pani bilo sakta nahin
