apne markaz se agar dur nikal jaoge
apne markaz se agar duur nikal jāoge
ḳhvāb ho jāoge afsānoñ meñ Dhal jāoge
ab to chehroñ ke ḳhad-o-ḳhāl bhī pahle se nahīñ
kis ko ma.alūm thā tum itne badal jāoge
apne parcham kā kahīñ rañg bhulā mat denā
surḳh sho.aloñ se jo kheloge to jal jāoge
de rahe haiñ tumheñ to log rifāqat kā fareb
un kī tārīḳh paḌhoge to dahal jāoge
apnī miTTī hī pe chalne kā salīqa sīkho
sañg-e-marmar pe chaloge to phisal jāoge
ḳhvāb-gāhoñ se nikalte hue Darte kyuuñ ho
dhuup itnī to nahīñ hai ki pighal jāoge
tez qadmoñ se chalo aur tasādum se bacho
bhiiḌ meñ sust chaloge to kuchal jāoge
ham-safar DhūñDo na rahbar kā sahārā chāho
Thokareñ khāoge to ḳhud hī sambhal jāoge
tum ho ik zinda-e-jāved rivāyat ke charāġh
tum koī shaam kā sūraj ho ki Dhal jāoge
sub.h-e-sādiq mujhe matlūb hai kis se māñgūñ
tum to bhole ho charāġhoñ se bahal jāoge
apne markaz se agar dur nikal jaoge
KHwab ho jaoge afsanon mein Dhal jaoge
ab to chehron ke KHad-o-KHal bhi pahle se nahin
kis ko malum tha tum itne badal jaoge
apne parcham ka kahin rang bhula mat dena
surKH shoalon se jo kheloge to jal jaoge
de rahe hain tumhein to log rifaqat ka fareb
un ki tariKH paDhoge to dahal jaoge
apni miTTi hi pe chalne ka saliqa sikho
sang-e-marmar pe chaloge to phisal jaoge
KHwab-gahon se nikalte hue Darte kyun ho
dhup itni to nahin hai ki pighal jaoge
tez qadmon se chalo aur tasadum se bacho
bhiD mein sust chaloge to kuchal jaoge
ham-safar DhunDo na rahbar ka sahaara chaho
Thokaren khaoge to KHud hi sambhal jaoge
tum ho ek zinda-e-jawed riwayat ke charagh
tum koi sham ka suraj ho ki Dhal jaoge
subh-e-sadiq mujhe matlub hai kis se mangun
tum to bhole ho charaghon se bahal jaoge
