Nazar mein koi manzil hai na jada chahta hun

nazar mein koi manzil hai na jada chahta hun
safar chahe koi ho be-irada chahta hun

KHushi ka kya KHushi mein chahe kuchh taKHfif kar do
mata-e-gham ziyaada se ziyaada chahta hun

mera mafhum aasani se khul jae jahan par
main apna lahja-e-izhaar sada chahta hun

meri nazron ko wusat do-jahan ki dene wale
main daman-e-taKHayyul bhi kushada chahta hun

qayaadat mujh pe nazan thi kabhi manzil-ba-manzil
aur ab KHud hi qayaadat jada jada chahta hun

bahut talKHi bhare haalat mein jina paDa hai
isi talKHi ki KHatir talKH baada chahta hun

main KHud pahunchun ki mere qadmon mein chali aai
ba-har-surat main takmil-e-irada chahta hun

musalsal chahiye ki baat hai aur barmala hai
sawal is ka nahin kam ya ziyaada chahta hun

jahan-e-tang ki tangi se mera kya ilaqa
wasi-ul-qalb hun duniya kushada chahta hun

tere daman-kashan rahne ka matlab kya hai mujh se
yahi to hai ki main tujh ko ziyaada chahta hun

alag tashkil dena chahta hun apni manzil
'waqar' apne liye maKHsus jada chahta hun
