bahut dinoñ meñ ham un se jo ham-kalām hue
dil-o-nazar hama-tan sajda-o-salām hue

hanūz jaise masīhā kī aamad aamad hai
agarche umr huī zindagī tamām hue

shafaq sī ḳhema-e-jānāñ kī samt baaqī hai
tamām vādī-o-kohsār ġharq-e-shām hue

ka.ī gile the jo shor-e-jahāñ meñ Duub ga.e
ka.ī sitam the jo ehsān ban ke aam hue

kisī taraf jinheñ rāh-e-gunāh mil na sakī
kuchh aise log bhī duniyā meñ nek-nām hue

ufuq ke paar kahīñ se lahū uchhaltā hai
zamīñ se duur bhī kyā kyā na qatl-e-ām hue

chale the un se musībat meñ ham gila karne
kuchh aur morid-e-taz.hīk-e-ḳhās-o-ām hue

rah-e-talab meñ na.e regzār tak pahuñche
vo tishna-kām jo sahrā meñ tez gaam hue

bahut dinon mein hum un se jo ham-kalam hue
dil-o-nazar hama-tan sajda-o-salam hue

hanuz jaise masiha ki aamad aamad hai
agarche umr hui zindagi tamam hue

shafaq si KHema-e-jaanan ki samt baqi hai
tamam wadi-o-kohsar gharq-e-sham hue

kai gile the jo shor-e-jahan mein Dub gae
kai sitam the jo ehsan ban ke aam hue

kisi taraf jinhen rah-e-gunah mil na saki
kuchh aise log bhi duniya mein nek-nam hue

ufuq ke par kahin se lahu uchhalta hai
zamin se dur bhi kya kya na qatl-e-am hue

chale the un se musibat mein hum gila karne
kuchh aur morid-e-tazhik-e-KHas-o-am hue

rah-e-talab mein nae regzar tak pahunche
wo tishna-kaam jo sahra mein tez gam hue
