kam-nigāhī bhī hai ḳhāmoshī bhī rūposhī bhī
kitnī ma.asūm hai ehsān-farāmoshī bhī
ham-safar tū jo nahīñ hai to ye dhaḌkā hai hameñ
thak na jaa.e kahīñ raste meñ vafā-koshī bhī
ab tū hī rakhnā mire pairāhan-e-ġham kā ḳhayāl
hosh kī tarah se rusvā na ho be-hoshī bhī
ghar meñ rahiye to sivā hotī hai vahshat 'fāḳhir'
chīḳhne lagtī hai tanhā.ī meñ ḳhāmoshī bhī
