kyā ye bhī maiñ batlā duuñ tū kaun hai maiñ kyā huuñ
tū jān-e-tamāshā hai maiñ mahv-e-tamāsha huuñ
tū bā'is-e-hastī hai maiñ hāsil-e-hastī huuñ
tū ḳhāliq-e-ulfat hai aur maiñ tirā banda huuñ
jab tak na milā thā tū ai fitna-e-do-'ālam
jab dard se ġhāfil thā ab dard kī duniyā huuñ
kuchh farq nahīñ tujh meñ aur mujh meñ koī lekin
tū aur kisī kā hai be-dard maiñ terā huuñ
muddat huī kho baiThā sarmāya-e-taskīñ maiñ
ab to tirī furqat meñ din raat taḌaptā huuñ
armān nahīñ koī go dil meñ mire lekin
allāh rī majbūrī majbūr-e-tamannā huuñ
'bahzād'-e-hazīñ mujh par ik kaif sā taarī hai
ab ye mirā 'ālam hai hañstā huuñ na rotā huuñ
kya ye bhi main batla dun tu kaun hai main kya hun
tu jaan-e-tamasha hai main mahw-e-tamasha hun
tu ba'is-e-hasti hai main hasil-e-hasti hun
tu KHaliq-e-ulfat hai aur main tera banda hun
jab tak na mila tha tu ai fitna-e-do-'alam
jab dard se ghafil tha ab dard ki duniya hun
kuchh farq nahin tujh mein aur mujh mein koi lekin
tu aur kisi ka hai be-dard main tera hun
muddat hui kho baiTha sarmaya-e-taskin main
ab to teri furqat mein din raat taDapta hun
arman nahin koi go dil mein mere lekin
allah ri majburi majbur-e-tamanna hun
'bahzad'-e-hazin mujh par ek kaif sa tari hai
ab ye mera 'alam hai hansta hun na rota hun
