soch kā zahr na ab shām-o-sahar de koī
aam hai be-ḳhabarī aisī ḳhabar de koī
sair-e-āfāq ho kyuuñ mashġhala-e-fikr-o-nazar
kaash mere par-e-parvāz katar de koī
duur tak bikhrā huā ret kī sūrat hai vajūd
ḳhud ko āvāz idhar de ki udhar de koī
mere alfāz na kar paa.e ma.ānī ko asiir
kitne dariyāoñ ko ik kuuze meñ bhar de koī
munkashif jis se hoñ asrār mirī hastī ke
jaane kab mujh ko vo irfān-o-nazar de koī
soch ka zahr na ab sham-o-sahar de koi
aam hai be-KHabari aisi KHabar de koi
sair-e-afaq ho kyun mashghala-e-fikr-o-nazar
kash mere par-e-parwaz katar de koi
dur tak bikhra hua ret ki surat hai wajud
KHud ko aawaz idhar de ki udhar de koi
mere alfaz na kar pae maani ko asir
kitne dariyaon ko ek kuze mein bhar de koi
munkashif jis se hon asrar meri hasti ke
jaane kab mujh ko wo irfan-o-nazar de koi
