kya kare meri masihai bhi karne wala
kyā kare merī masīhā.ī bhī karne vaalā
zaḳhm hī ye mujhe lagtā nahīñ bharne vaalā
zindagī se kisī samjhaute ke bā-vasf ab tak
yaad aatā hai koī mārne marne vaalā
us ko bhī ham tire kūche meñ guzār aa.e haiñ
zindagī meñ vo jo lamha thā sañvarne vaalā
shaam hone ko hai aur aañkh meñ ik ḳhvāb nahīñ
koī is ghar meñ nahīñ raushnī karne vaalā
dastaras meñ haiñ anāsir ke irāde kis ke
so bikhar ke hī rahā koī bikharne vaalā
us kā andāz-e-suḳhan sab se judā thā shāyad
baat lagtī huī lahja vo mukarne vaalā
isī ummīd pe har shaam bujhā.e haiñ charāġh
ek taaza hai sar-e-bām ubharne vaalā
kya kare meri masihai bhi karne wala
zaKHm hi ye mujhe lagta nahin bharne wala
zindagi se kisi samjhaute ke ba-wasf ab tak
yaad aata hai koi marne marne wala
us ko bhi hum tere kuche mein guzar aae hain
zindagi mein wo jo lamha tha sanwarne wala
sham hone ko hai aur aankh mein ek KHwab nahin
koi is ghar mein nahin raushni karne wala
dastaras mein hain anasir ke irade kis ke
so bikhar ke hi raha koi bikharne wala
us ka andaz-e-suKHan sab se juda tha shayad
baat lagti hui lahja wo mukarne wala
isi ummid pe har sham bujhae hain charagh
ek taza hai sar-e-baam ubharne wala
