andhera zehn ka samt-e-safar jab khone lagta hai
añdherā zehn kā samt-e-safar jab khone lagtā hai
kisī kā dhyān aatā hai ujālā hone lagtā hai
vo jitnī duur ho utnā hī merā hone lagtā hai
magar jab paas aatā hai to mujh se khone lagtā hai
kisī ne rakh diye mamtā-bhare do haath kyā sar par
mire andar koī bachcha bilak kar rone lagtā hai
mohabbat chaar din kī aur udāsī zindagī bhar kī
yahī sab dekhtā hai aur 'kabīrā' rone lagtā hai
samajhte hī nahīñ nādān kai din kī hai milkiyyat
parā.e khetoñ pe apnoñ meñ jhagḌā hone lagtā hai
ye dil bach kar zamāne bhar se chalnā chāhe hai lekin
jab apnī raah chaltā hai akelā hone lagtā hai
andhera zehn ka samt-e-safar jab khone lagta hai
kisi ka dhyan aata hai ujala hone lagta hai
wo jitni dur ho utna hi mera hone lagta hai
magar jab pas aata hai to mujh se khone lagta hai
kisi ne rakh diye mamta-bhare do hath kya sar par
mere andar koi bachcha bilak kar rone lagta hai
mohabbat chaar din ki aur udasi zindagi bhar ki
yahi sab dekhta hai aur 'kabira' rone lagta hai
samajhte hi nahin nadan kai din ki hai milkiyyat
parae kheton pe apnon mein jhagDa hone lagta hai
ye dil bach kar zamane bhar se chalna chahe hai lekin
jab apni rah chalta hai akela hone lagta hai
