jin se maqsud hain manzil ke nishanat mujhe
jin se maqsūd haiñ manzil ke nishānāt mujhe
bhūlte jaate haiñ vo saare ishārāt mujhe
rāh-e-irfān meñ bhaTke haiñ kuchh aise donoñ
maiñ use DhūñDhtā huuñ aur mirī zaat mujhe
un ke Dar se ka.ī rāteñ mirī be-ḳhvāb rahīñ
DhūñDhtī phirtī haiñ ḳhvāboñ meñ jo āfāt mujhe
dūsroñ ke liye vāfir haiñ mire paas javāb
kitne mushkil haiñ magar apne savālāt mujhe
yahīñ raushan hai kisī ek ḳharābe meñ charāġh
ik zarā raah dikhā de ye siyah raat mujhe
chhīn letā hai kabhī mere mahāsin 'betāb'
baḳhsh detā hai kabhī apnī karāmāt mujhe
jin se maqsud hain manzil ke nishanat mujhe
bhulte jate hain wo sare ishaaraat mujhe
rah-e-irfan mein bhaTke hain kuchh aise donon
main use DhunDhta hun aur meri zat mujhe
un ke Dar se kai raaten meri be-KHwab rahin
DhunDhti phirti hain KHwabon mein jo aafat mujhe
dusron ke liye wafir hain mere pas jawab
kitne mushkil hain magar apne sawalat mujhe
yahin raushan hai kisi ek KHarabe mein charagh
ek zara rah dikha de ye siyah raat mujhe
chhin leta hai kabhi mere mahasin 'betab'
baKHsh deta hai kabhi apni karamat mujhe
