Mila Jo Koi Yahan Ramz-ashna Na Mujhe

mila jo koi yahan ramz-ashna na mujhe

wabaal-e-hosh raha harf-e-mahramana mujhe

udas phirti hai shadab wadiyon ki mahak

hai kaenat yahi kunj-e-ashiyana mujhe

adu ki sang-zani ki nahin mujhe parwa

tere karam ka mayassar hai shamiyana mujhe

koi ilaj-e-gham-e-zindagi bata waiz

sune hue jo fasane hain phir suna na mujhe

subuk-sari mein zamin-e-watan bhi tang hui

kashan kashan liye phirta hai aab-o-dana mujhe

mere nasib mein hai kisht-e-jaan ki virani

na aai ras rah-o-rasm-e-ashiqana mujhe

bhaTak raha hun usi ki talash mein 'aKHtar'

ki jis dayar ko chhoDe hua zamana mujhe
