Dil Hai Bahr-E-Be-Karan Dil Ki Umang

Sahir Dehlavi

dil hai bahr-e-be-karan dil ki umang

chaar mauj chaar su hai chaar rang

mauj-e-avval hai juz-o-kul men muhit

sar-ba-sar kibr-o-mina ka rang-Dhang

hai tasavvur doyami mauj-e-ḳhayal

farsh se ta-arsh jis ki hai tarang

soyami hai aql mahdud-o-salim

mante hain jis ka loha sab dabang

dil ki hai mauj-e-chaharum vahima

dam-ba-dam jis ki anokhi hai umang

chaar dang-e-alam-e-ijad men

chaar maujen hain baham aur ḳhana-jang

jaan ki tahrik se hai sab numud

ḳhvah dil hai ḳhvah hai dil ki umang

hain isi tahrik men aḳhir fana

sham.a ki lau men fana jaise patang

aql ki saiqal se ho jaata hai paak

dil ke a.ine ko jab lagta hai zang

ilm men hai hasti-e-dil be-sabat

jaise ‘sahir’ ab-e-dariya men tarang
