mere nadeem mere hamasaphar, udaas n ho.
kaThin sahee teree manzil, magar udaas n ho.
kadam kadam pe chaTTaanen khaḌee rahen, lekin
jo chal nikalate hain dariyaa to phir naheen rukate.
havaae(n) kitanaa bhee Takaraae(n) aandhiyaa(n) banakar,
magar ghaTaaon ke parachham kabhee naheen jhukate.
mere nadeem mere hamasaphar .....
har ek talaash ke raaste men mushkilen hain, magar
har ek talaash muraadon ke rang laatee hai.
hazaaron chaand sitaaron kaa khoon hotaa hai
tab ek subah phizaaon pe muskuraatee hai.
mere nadeem mere hamasaphar ....
jo apane khoon ko paanee banaa naheen sakate
vo zindagee men nayaa rang laa naheen sakate.
jo raaste ke andheron se haar jaate hain
vo manzilon ke ujaalon ko paa naheen sakate.
mere nadeem mere hamasaphar, udaas n ho.
kaThin sahee teree manzil, magar udaas n ho.
