duniyā ne terī yaad se begāna kar diyā — Faiz Ahmad Faiz

dil nā-umīd to nahīñ nākām hī to hai
lambī hai ġham kī shaam magar shaam hī to hai

kab Thahregā dard ai dil kab raat basar hogī
sunte the vo ā.eñge sunte the sahar hogī

jo nafas thā ḳhār-e-gulū banā jo uThe the haath lahū hue
vo nashāt-e-āh-e-sahr ga.ī vo vaqār-e-dast-e-duā gayā

raat yuuñ dil meñ tirī khoī huī yaad aa.ī
jaise vīrāne meñ chupke se bahār aa jaa.e

jo talab pe ahd-e-vafā kiyā to vo ābrū-e-vafā ga.ī
sar-e-ām jab hue mudda.ī to savāb-e-sidq-o-vafā gayā

na jaane kis liye ummīd-vār baiThā huuñ
ik aisī raah pe jo terī rahguzar bhī nahīñ

Dil dhoondta hai phir wahi fursat-e-shab-o-roz
Naaz uthana, naaz uthana, naaz uthana

Hazaaron khwahishein aisi ke har khwahish pe dam nikle
Bahut nikle mere armaan, lekin phir bhi kam nikle

maiñ bhī ruk ruk ke na martā jo zabāñ ke badle
dashna ik tez sā hotā mire ġham-ḳhvār ke paas

baḌe baḌe ġham khaḌe hue the rasta roke rāhoñ meñ
chhoTī chhoTī ḳhushiyoñ se hī ham ne dil ko shaad kiyā

ḳhud apne se milne kā to yaarā na thā mujh meñ
maiñ bhiiḌ meñ gum ho ga.ī tanhā.ī ke Dar se

kaan meñ hai tere motī āb-dār
yā kisī āshiq kā aañsū bolnā
