Akser es duniya mein

Akser es duniya mein
Hota hai yoon keh
Jo chahta hoon mein
Hota n’heen akser waisa

Aur jab daikta hoon keh
Kaise apni wiarani-e-dil se beniyaz
Khosh baash,lab kh’meeda
Jee rahay hein log

Aur ay keh too
meri betaabi-e-rooh ki gehrayian
kabhi na jaan sakhay ga
Kia mujhay jaan’nay ka da’wa kerta hai

Ay es khaak ke putlay ko kabhi koi
Woh shahz bhi jaan na s’ka
jis ki rooh mein amanat hai es ki rooh
too, bekhabar

Tootay hue per
Kahlil Gibran ke agar tum ne parha ho
to jaan sako wo keh
kabhi rooh se bahir na aa sake ga

ay keh too, be khabarrr
mere dil mein wairani’yan la ker
Khod bhi jee na sakkay
meray dil se teray le’yay dua aati hai

Akser es duniya mein
Hota hai yoon keh
Jo chahta hoon mein
Hota n’heen akser waisa
