hazar zaKHm hain dil par jigar pe khae hue

hazār zaḳhm haiñ dil par jigar pe khaa.e hue

magar mile jo kisī se to muskurā.e hue

kuchh is adā se vo aa.e nazar jhukā.e hue

tamām rah ga.e shikve zabāñ pe aa.e hue

udhar to sāġhar-o-paimāna vaale rahte haiñ

udhar kahāñ chale vaa.iz qadam baḌhā.e hue

baḌho kuchh aur ki tārīkī-e-jafā kam ho

isī tarah se charāġh-e-vafā jalā.e hue

hameñ satāne se baaz aaoge yaqīñ to nahīñ

tumhāre kitne hī va.ade haiñ āzmā.e hue

tumhāre tīr-e-nazar ko kisī ne kuchh na kahā

hamārī aah ko haiñ dāstāñ banā.e hue

hamārā zikr aur is mai-kade meñ ai 'āsī'

yahāñ to shaiḳh-o-barahman haiñ Dagmagā.e hue

hazar zaKHm hain dil par jigar pe khae hue

magar mile jo kisi se to muskurae hue

kuchh is ada se wo aae nazar jhukae hue

tamam rah gae shikwe zaban pe aae hue

udhar to saghar-o-paimana wale rahte hain

udhar kahan chale waiz qadam baDhae hue

baDho kuchh aur ki tariki-e-jafa kam ho

isi tarah se charagh-e-wafa jalae hue

hamein satane se baz aaoge yaqin to nahin

tumhaare kitne hi wade hain aazmae hue

tumhaare tir-e-nazar ko kisi ne kuchh na kaha

hamari aah ko hain dastan banae hue

hamara zikr aur is mai-kade mein ai 'asi'

yahan to shaiKH-o-barahman hain Dagmagae hue
