kahiin to kaaravaan-e-dard kii manzil thahar jaaye - faiz ahmed faiz

kahiin to kaaravaan-e-dard kii manzil thahar jaaye

kinaare aa lage umr-e-ravaan yaa dil thahar jaaye

amaan kaisii ki mauj-e-Khuun abhii sar se nahiin guzarii

guzar jaaye to shaayad baazuu-e-qaatil thahar jaaye

koii dam baadabaan-e-kashtii-e-sahabaa ko tah rakho

zaraa thaharo gubaar-e-Khaatir-e-mahafil thahar jaaye

hamaarii Khamoshii bas dil se lab tak ek vaqfaa hai

ye tuufaan hai jo pal bhar bas lab-e-saahil thahar jaaye

nigaah-e-muntazir kab tak karegii aaiinaabandii

kahiin to dasht-e-gam men yaar kaa mahamil thahar jaaye
