surḳh dāman meñ shafaq ke koī taarā to nahīñ
ham ko mustaqbil-e-zarrīñ ne pukārā to nahīñ
dast o pā shal haiñ kināre se lagā baiThā huuñ
lekin is shorish-e-tūfān se haarā to nahīñ
is ġham-e-dost ne kyā kuchh na sitam Dhaa.e magar
ġham-e-daurāñ kī tarah jaan se maarā to nahīñ
dukh bhare gītoñ se māmūr hai kyuuñ barbat-e-jāñ
is meñ kuchh gursana nazroñ kā ishārā to nahīñ
ashk jo de na uThe lau sar-e-mizhgāñ aa kar
sirf ik qatra-e-shabnam hai sharāra to nahīñ
ik ujālā sā jhalaktā hai pas-e-parda-e-shab
chashm-e-be-ḳhvāb meñ larzāñ koī taarā to nahīñ
kitnī ummīdoñ pe jiitā rahā 'vāmiq' ab tak
ab magar ik yahī jiine kā sahārā to nahīñ
