Hote Hote Chashm Se Aaj Ashk-bari Rah Gai

hote hote chashm se aaj ashk-bari rah gai

aabru bare teri abr-e-bahaari rah gai

aate aate is taraf un ki sawari rah gai

dil ki dil mein aarzu-e-jaan-nisari rah gai

hum ko KHatra tha ki logon mein tha charcha aur kuchh

baat KHat aane se tere par hamari rah gai

TukDe TukDe ho ke uD jaega sab sang-e-mazar

dil mein baad-az-marg kuchh gar be-qarari rah gai

itna miliye KHak mein jo KHak mein DhunDe koi

KHaksari KHak ki gar KHaksari rah gai

aao gar aana hai kyun gin gin ke rakhte ho qadam

aur koi dam ki hai yan dam-shumari rah gai

ho gaya jis din se apne dil par us ko iKHtiyar

iKHtiyar apna gaya be-iKHtiyari rah gai

jab qadam us kafir-e-bad-kesh ki jaanib baDhe

dur pahunche sau qadam parhez-gari rah gai

khinchte hi tegh ada ke dam hua apna hawa

aah dil mein aarzu-e-zaKHm-e-kari rah gai

aur to gham-KHwar sare kar chuke gham-KHwargi

ab faqat hai ek gham ki gham-gusari rah gai

shikwa ayyari ka yaron se baja hai ai 'zafar'

is zamane mein yahi hai rasm-e-yari rah gai
