Hum Musafir Hain Ki Maqsud-e-safar Jaante Hain

hum musafir hain ki maqsud-e-safar jaante hain

kaise banti hai koi rahguzar jaante hain

be-ghari zad-e-safar ho to Thaharna kaisa

itne aadab to ye KHak-ba-sar jaante hain

rah-e-sunnat bhi yahi jada-e-hijrat bhi yahi

panw ruk jaen jahan bhi use ghar jaante hain

kya KHabar Dub ke ubhrin ki ubhar kar Duben

zist ko hum to samundar ka safar jaante hain

kitni is daur mein aazadi hai majburon ko

KHauf ki aag mein jalte hue par jaante hain

KHushk honTon pe likhi hai ye kahani kis ne

kah nahin sakte magar dida-e-tar jaante hain

koi mahram hai ki mahrum hamein kya malum

un se puchho jo maqamat-e-nazar jaante hain

hum ko aate nahin andaz-e-hunar-mandi-e-fan

ye alag baat ki tauqir-e-hunar jaante hain

ghar se bahar jo nikalte hi nahin hain 'athar'

kitni aasan teri rahguzar jaante hain
