log jin ko aaj tak bār-e-garāñ samjhā kiye
ham unhīñ lamhoñ ko umr-e-jāvedāñ samjhā kiye
maut ko ham zindagī kī tarjumāñ samjhā kiye
qatra-e-dariyā ko bahr-e-be-karāñ samjhā kiye
go haqīqat hī haqīqat thī sarāpā ham magar
zindagī ko dāstāñ hī dāstāñ samjhā kiye
hasrat-e-sair-e-gulistāñ ḳhvāb ban kar rah ga.ī
vo qafas niklā jise ham āshiyāñ samjhā kiye
haañ vahī ik shaḳhs niklā be-muravvat bevafā
ham jise jān-e-tamannā jān-e-jāñ samjhā kiye
ho ga.e ik baar phir ham ḳhud-farebī ke shikār
vo zamīñ niklī jise ham āsmāñ samjhā kiye
haa.e vo niklīñ munazzam rahzanoñ kī Toliyāñ
aaj tak jin ko 'kañval' ham kārvāñ samjhā kiye
