bas lamhe bhar mein faisla karna paDa mujhe
bas lamhe bhar meñ faisla karnā paḌā mujhe
sab chhoḌ-chhāḌ ghar se nikalnā paḌā mujhe
jab apnī sar-zamīn ne mujh ko na dī panāh
anjān vādiyoñ meñ utarnā paḌā mujhe
paañv meñ aable the thakan umr bhar kī thī
ruknā thā baiThnā thā pa chalnā paḌā mujhe
apnī parakh ke vāste tūfāñ ke darmiyāñ
mazbūt kashtiyoñ se utarnā paḌā mujhe
terī anā ke haath meñ the tere faisle
tū to badal na paayā badalnā paḌā mujhe
be-intihā tazād thā donoñ kī soch meñ
kuchh yuuñ bhī rāste ko badalnā paḌā mujhe
ye bhī huā ki bā-dil-e-nā-ḳhvāsta kabhī
zinda haqīqatoñ se mukarnā paḌā mujhe
yakjā rahā ik umr magar terī diid ko
mānind-e-musht-e-ḳhāk bikharnā paḌā mujhe
āġhāz apne bas meñ na anjām hī 'adīl'
ik zindagī guzār ke marnā paḌā mujhe
bas lamhe bhar mein faisla karna paDa mujhe
sab chhoD-chhaD ghar se nikalna paDa mujhe
jab apni sar-zamin ne mujh ko na di panah
anjaan wadiyon mein utarna paDa mujhe
panw mein aable the thakan umr bhar ki thi
rukna tha baiThna tha pa chalna paDa mujhe
apni parakh ke waste tufan ke darmiyan
mazbut kashtiyon se utarna paDa mujhe
teri ana ke hath mein the tere faisle
tu to badal na paya badalna paDa mujhe
be-intiha tazad tha donon ki soch mein
kuchh yun bhi raste ko badalna paDa mujhe
ye bhi hua ki ba-dil-e-na-KHwasta kabhi
zinda haqiqaton se mukarna paDa mujhe
yakja raha ek umr magar teri did ko
manind-e-musht-e-KHak bikharna paDa mujhe
aaghaz apne bas mein na anjam hi 'adil'
ek zindagi guzar ke marna paDa mujhe
