aksar zamin se uD ke falak par gaya hun main
aksar zamīñ se uḌ ke falak par gayā huuñ maiñ
mushkil thā ye kamāl magar kar gayā huuñ maiñ
maiñ jāntā thā hogī na mujh par nazar kabhī
mahfil meñ un kī phir bhī barābar gayā huuñ maiñ
patthar tarāsh kar ke to ishvar banā diyā
apne hī shāhkār se kyuuñ Dar gayā huuñ maiñ
raushan kiyā hai maiñ ne hamesha vafā kā naam
dār-o-rasan kī samt bhī aksar gayā huuñ maiñ
Tokā har ek gaam pe mere zamīr ne
jab bhī hudūd-e-shauq ke bāhar gayā huuñ maiñ
maqtal kā haal dekhā hai maiñ ne qarīb se
kūche meñ qātiloñ ke bhī aksar gayā huuñ maiñ
ehsās mujh ko itnā bhī ab to nahīñ 'navāb'
maiñ jī rahā huuñ aaj bhī ki mar gayā huuñ maiñ
aksar zamin se uD ke falak par gaya hun main
mushkil tha ye kamal magar kar gaya hun main
main jaanta tha hogi na mujh par nazar kabhi
mahfil mein un ki phir bhi barabar gaya hun main
patthar tarash kar ke to ishwar bana diya
apne hi shahkar se kyun Dar gaya hun main
raushan kiya hai main ne hamesha wafa ka nam
dar-o-rasan ki samt bhi aksar gaya hun main
Toka har ek gam pe mere zamir ne
jab bhi hudud-e-shauq ke bahar gaya hun main
maqtal ka haal dekha hai main ne qarib se
kuche mein qatilon ke bhi aksar gaya hun main
ehsas mujh ko itna bhi ab to nahin 'nawab'
main ji raha hun aaj bhi ki mar gaya hun main
