vo chaal chal ki zamāna bhī saath chalne lage

nigār-e-zīst tirī samt ruḳh badalne lage

vafūr-e-yās meñ muzhda hai kis ke aane kā

ye aaj kyuuñ sar-e-mizhgāñ charāġh jalne lage

zamāna pher le āñkheñ to kyā gilā us kā

sitam to ye hai ki tum bhī nazar badalne lage

mujhe ye Dar hai ba-īñ vasf-e-ehtirām-e-vafā

na terī chashm-e-mohabbat kahīñ badalne lage

ye dāġh-e-sajda to nañg-e-jabīñ hai ai zāhid

agar na soz-e-mohabbat se dil pighalne lage

na pūchh kis nigah-e-ḳhās kā tasarruf hai

qadam jo rāh-e-mohabbat meñ ḳhud sambhalne lage

'hamīd' shām-e-ġharībāñ kā kis liye shikva

vo dekh jānib-e-manzil charāġh jalne lage
