har nafas mein dil ki betabi baDhate jaiye
har nafas meñ dil kī betābī baḌhāte jā.iye
duur rah kar bhī mire nazdīk aate jā.iye
ik zarā tham tham ke ye parde uThāte jā.iye
dekhne vāloñ kī nazreñ āzmāte jā.iye
mere is zulmat-kade ko jagmagāte jā.iye
ho sake to merī ḳhātir muskurāte jā.iye
phir isī andāz se nazreñ milāte jā.iye
dekhne vāloñ kī nazreñ āzmāte jā.iye
yā koī taskīn kī sūrat batāte jā.iye
yā phir apnī yaad se ġhāfil banāte jā.iye
rafta rafta ḳhud ko dīvāna banāte jā.iye
husn kī dilchaspiyoñ ke kaam aate jā.iye
aql kahtī hai dobāra āzmānā jahl hai
dil ye kahtā hai fareb-e-dost khāte jā.iye
kufr o īmāñ ke sivā bhī kuchh manāzir aur haiñ
un ke har andāz par īmān laate jā.iye
aa hī jā.egā koī qismat kā maarā qais bhī
har taraf umm-e-ruḳh-e-lailā bichhāte jā.iye
maiñ ne kuchh fitrat hī paa.ī hai ajab mushkil-pasand
merī har mushkil ko mushkil-tar banāte jā.iye
yaad hai 'māhir' mujhe un kā vo kahnā yaad hai
aaj to bas raat bhar ġhazleñ sunāte jā.iye
har nafas mein dil ki betabi baDhate jaiye
dur rah kar bhi mere nazdik aate jaiye
ek zara tham tham ke ye parde uThate jaiye
dekhne walon ki nazren aazmate jaiye
mere is zulmat-kade ko jagmagate jaiye
ho sake to meri KHatir muskuraate jaiye
phir isi andaz se nazren milate jaiye
dekhne walon ki nazren aazmate jaiye
ya koi taskin ki surat batate jaiye
ya phir apni yaad se ghafil banate jaiye
rafta rafta KHud ko diwana banate jaiye
husn ki dilchaspiyon ke kaam aate jaiye
aql kahti hai dobara aazmana jahl hai
dil ye kahta hai fareb-e-dost khate jaiye
kufr o iman ke siwa bhi kuchh manazir aur hain
un ke har andaz par iman late jaiye
aa hi jaega koi qismat ka mara qais bhi
har taraf umm-e-ruKH-e-laila bichhate jaiye
main ne kuchh fitrat hi pai hai ajab mushkil-pasand
meri har mushkil ko mushkil-tar banate jaiye
yaad hai 'mahir' mujhe un ka wo kahna yaad hai
aaj to bas raat bhar ghazlen sunate jaiye
