dost ban kar bhi nahin sath nibhane wala
dost ban kar bhī nahīñ saath nibhāne vaalā
vahī andāz hai zālim kā zamāne vaalā
ab use log samajhte haiñ giraftār mirā
saḳht nādim hai mujhe daam meñ laane vaalā
sub.h-dam chhoḌ gayā nik.hat-e-gul kī sūrat
raat ko ġhuncha-e-dil meñ simaT aane vaalā
kyā kaheñ kitne marāsim the hamāre us se
vo jo ik shaḳhs hai muñh pher ke jaane vaalā
tere hote hue aa jaatī thī saarī duniyā
aaj tanhā huuñ to koī nahīñ aane vaalā
muntazir kis kā huuñ TuuTī huī dahlīz pe maiñ
kaun aa.egā yahāñ kaun hai aane vaalā
kyā ḳhabar thī jo mirī jaañ meñ ghulā hai itnā
hai vahī mujh ko sar-e-dār bhī laane vaalā
maiñ ne dekhā hai bahāroñ meñ chaman ko jalte
hai koī ḳhvāb kī tābīr batāne vaalā
tum takalluf ko bhī iḳhlās samajhte ho 'farāz'
dost hotā nahīñ har haath milāne vaalā
dost ban kar bhi nahin sath nibhane wala
wahi andaz hai zalim ka zamane wala
ab use log samajhte hain giraftar mera
saKHt nadim hai mujhe dam mein lane wala
subh-dam chhoD gaya nikhat-e-gul ki surat
raat ko ghuncha-e-dil mein simaT aane wala
kya kahen kitne marasim the hamare us se
wo jo ek shaKHs hai munh pher ke jaane wala
tere hote hue aa jati thi sari duniya
aaj tanha hun to koi nahin aane wala
muntazir kis ka hun TuTi hui dahliz pe main
kaun aaega yahan kaun hai aane wala
kya KHabar thi jo meri jaan mein ghula hai itna
hai wahi mujh ko sar-e-dar bhi lane wala
main ne dekha hai bahaaron mein chaman ko jalte
hai koi KHwab ki tabir batane wala
tum takalluf ko bhi iKHlas samajhte ho 'faraaz'
dost hota nahin har hath milane wala
