gham itne apne daman-e-dil se lipaT gae

ġham itne apne dāman-e-dil se lipaT ga.e

tujh se bichhaḌ ke ham ka.ī qistoñ meñ baT ga.e

kyuuñ ye dayār mere liye tañg sā lagā

kyā baat hai ki dāman-e-sahrā simaT ga.e

is se kahīñ bhī naam tumhārā nahīñ milā

ham har varaq kitāb-e-vafā ke palaT ga.e

tum ġhair se nibhāo vafā ham ko bhuul kar

jaao tumhārī raah se ham aaj haT ga.e

ab jhelnā paḌegā azāb-e-gunāh-e-ishq

us but-numā ḳhudā ke irāde palaT ga.e

jab se matā-e-dard milī mujh ko ai 'zafar'

qad mere sāmne mire yāroñ ke ghaT ga.e

gham itne apne daman-e-dil se lipaT gae

tujh se bichhaD ke hum kai qiston mein baT gae

kyun ye dayar mere liye tang sa laga

kya baat hai ki daman-e-sahra simaT gae

is se kahin bhi nam tumhaara nahin mila

hum har waraq kitab-e-wafa ke palaT gae

tum ghair se nibhao wafa hum ko bhul kar

jao tumhaari rah se hum aaj haT gae

ab jhelna paDega azab-e-gunah-e-ishq

us but-numa KHuda ke irade palaT gae

jab se mata-e-dard mili mujh ko ai 'zafar'

qad mere samne mere yaron ke ghaT gae
