tum zamāne kī raah se aa.e

varna sīdhā thā rāsta dil kā

tum zamane ki rah se aae

warna sidha tha rasta dil ka

dost har aib chhupā lete haiñ

koī dushman bhī tirā hai ki nahīñ

dost har aib chhupa lete hain

koi dushman bhi tera hai ki nahin

kashtiyāñ TuuT ga.ī haiñ saarī

ab liye phirtā hai dariyā ham ko

kashtiyan TuT gai hain sari

ab liye phirta hai dariya hum ko

'bāqī' jo chup rahoge to uTTheñgī uñgliyāñ

hai bolnā bhī rasm-e-jahāñ bolte raho

'baqi' jo chup rahoge to uTThengi ungliyan

hai bolna bhi rasm-e-jahan bolte raho

is badalte hue zamāne meñ

tere qisse bhī kuchh purāne lage

is badalte hue zamane mein

tere qisse bhi kuchh purane lage
