toD Kar Hum Be-KHudi Ki Had KHudi Tak Aa Gae

toḌ kar ham be-ḳhudi ki had ḳhudi tak aa ga.e

maut se karke baghavat zindagi tak aa ga.e

apni manzil aap hi ḳhud aa rahe hain ab nazar

ho na ho ham aaj apni raushni tak aa ga.e

ai gham-e-alam tiri is dil-navazi ke nisar

tere nazdik aa ke jaise har ḳhushi tak aa ga.e

kyon fazaon men nazar aate hain jalvon ke ghubar

kya mah-o-ḳhurshid gird-e-adami tak aa ga.e

bujh rahi hain jin ki ḳhatir ishraten kaunain ki

aise gham bhi kuchh hamari zindagi tak aa ga.e

ab mohabbat ka har ik ruḳh aa.ina ban ja.ega

aaj ham un ki nigah-e-be-ruḳhi tak aa ga.e

fitratan ab ho chala insan fitrat-ashna

ḳhud guman saare yaqin ki raushni tak aa ga.e

sha.iri ki raah men karte hue raushan charagh

ai ‘shifa’ ham bhi maqam-e-zindagi tak aa ga.e
