ummid ka daman tu mera chaak na karna
ummīd kā dāman tū mirā chaak na karnā
yuuñ mujh pe sitam ai dil-e-saffāk na karnā
tārīkī-e-shab hai mirā pahle se muqaddar
aur tum bhī añdhere mirī imlāk na karnā
ye zaḳhm-e-anā kaafī hai ai yūsuf-e-daurāñ
ab chashm-e-zuleḳhā ko tū namnāk na karnā
jab nīñdeñ bichhaḌ jaa.eñ to aa jaatī haiñ yādeñ
is ḳhvāb-nagar ko pas-e-aflāk na karnā
baiThī huuñ umīdoñ pe 'bahār' aa.egī shāyad
yuuñ ās-jazīre ko tah-e-ḳhāk na karnā
ummid ka daman tu mera chaak na karna
yun mujh pe sitam ai dil-e-saffak na karna
tariki-e-shab hai mera pahle se muqaddar
aur tum bhi andhere meri imlak na karna
ye zaKHm-e-ana kafi hai ai yusuf-e-dauran
ab chashm-e-zuleKHa ko tu namnak na karna
jab ninden bichhaD jaen to aa jati hain yaaden
is KHwab-nagar ko pas-e-aflak na karna
baiThi hun umidon pe 'bahaar' aaegi shayad
yun aas-jazire ko tah-e-KHak na karna
