koi bach nahin pata aisa jal bunte hain
koī bach nahīñ paatā aisā jaal bunte haiñ
kaise kaise qisse ye māh-o-sāl bunte haiñ
jaane kitnī sadiyoñ se har baras ḳhizāñ-rut meñ
ḳhushk patte dhartī par zard shaal bunte haiñ
aaj kal na jaane kyuuñ zehn par tanāv hai
TūT-phūT jaatā hai jo ḳhayāl bunte haiñ
shahr vaale pochheñge kuchh sabab jaddā.ī kā
ghar ke ḳhālī kone bhī kuchh savāl bunte haiñ
hijr ke manāzir ko bhūlnā hī behtar hai
pyaar kī tanāboñ se phir visāl bunte haiñ
halqa-e-mohabbat meñ jo nazīr ban jaa.e
aao ham vafāoñ kī vo misāl bunte haiñ
ab purānī bātoñ ko kyā kurednā 'shāhid'
bhuul kar guzashta ko apnā haal bunte haiñ
koi bach nahin pata aisa jal bunte hain
kaise kaise qisse ye mah-o-sal bunte hain
jaane kitni sadiyon se har baras KHizan-rut mein
KHushk patte dharti par zard shaal bunte hain
aaj kal na jaane kyun zehn par tanaw hai
TuT-phuT jata hai jo KHayal bunte hain
shahr wale pochhenge kuchh sabab jaddai ka
ghar ke KHali kone bhi kuchh sawal bunte hain
hijr ke manazir ko bhulna hi behtar hai
pyar ki tanabon se phir visal bunte hain
halqa-e-mohabbat mein jo nazir ban jae
aao hum wafaon ki wo misal bunte hain
ab purani baaton ko kya kuredna 'shahid'
bhul kar guzashta ko apna haal bunte hain
