kal sāmne manzil thī pīchhe mirī āvāzeñ

chaltā to bichhaḌ jaatā ruktā to safar jaatā

kal samne manzil thi pichhe meri aawazen

chalta to bichhaD jata rukta to safar jata

raushnī DhūñD ke laanā koī mushkil to na thā

lekin is dauḌ meñ har shaḳhs ko jalte dekhā

raushni DhunD ke lana koi mushkil to na tha

lekin is dauD mein har shaKHs ko jalte dekha

kitne mausam sargardāñ the mujh se haath milāne meñ

maiñ ne shāyad der lagā dī ḳhud se bāhar aane meñ

kitne mausam sargardan the mujh se hath milane mein

main ne shayad der laga di KHud se bahar aane mein

ajab mahfil hai sab ik dūsre par hañs rahe haiñ

ajab tanhā.ī hai ḳhalvat kī ḳhalvat ro rahī hai

ajab mahfil hai sab ek dusre par hans rahe hain

ajab tanhai hai KHalwat ki KHalwat ro rahi hai

dariyā paar utarne vaale ye bhī jaan nahīñ paa.e

kise kināre par le Duubā paar utar jaane kā ġham

dariya par utarne wale ye bhi jaan nahin pae

kise kinare par le Duba par utar jaane ka gham
