kya mila qais ko gard-e-rah-e-sahra ho kar
kyā milā qais ko gard-e-rah-e-sahrā ho kar
rah gayā hotā ġhubār-e-dar-e-lailā ho kar
yaad aate haiñ chaman meñ jo kisī ke aariz
gul khaTakte haiñ mirī āñkhoñ meñ kāñTā ho kar
pahle kyā thā jo kiyā karte the tārīf mirī
ab huā kyā jo burā ho gayā achchhā ho kar
dil meñ rakh gard-e-kudūrat na bahut ai kam-bīñ
kahīñ rah jaa.e na ye aa.ina andhā ho kar
hijr meñ yād-e-mizha aur bhī taḌpātī hai
qalb-e-bismil meñ khaTaktī hai ye kāñTā ho kar
nāla-e-garm ne tāsīr ajab dikhlā.ī
rah gayā misl-e-charāġh aap meñ ThanDā ho kar
yaar ke ruḳh kī sabāhat kā tasavvur shab-e-hijr
aayā taskīñ ko mirī nuur kā taḌkā ho kar
dil se kahtā hai ġham-e-ulfat-e-jānāñ dam-e-marg
tum to duniyā se chale maiñ rahūñ kis kā ho kar
chhoḌnā ai ġham-e-ulfat na kabhī saath us kā
kahīñ ghabrā.e mirā dil na akelā ho kar
aa.e to vasl kā din ho to kahīñ bos-o-kanār
sab nikal jā.egī sharm un kī pasīnā ho kar
jism-e-anvar kī latāfat kī sanā kyā kiije
jāma-e-yār na utrā kabhī mailā ho kar
dahr kī dekhte haiñ past-o-buland ai 'zebā'
karbalā jā.eñge is vāste bat.hā ho kar
kya mila qais ko gard-e-rah-e-sahra ho kar
rah gaya hota ghubar-e-dar-e-laila ho kar
yaad aate hain chaman mein jo kisi ke aariz
gul khaTakte hain meri aankhon mein kanTa ho kar
pahle kya tha jo kiya karte the tarif meri
ab hua kya jo bura ho gaya achchha ho kar
dil mein rakh gard-e-kudurat na bahut ai kam-bin
kahin rah jae na ye aaina andha ho kar
hijr mein yaad-e-mizha aur bhi taDpati hai
qalb-e-bismil mein khaTakti hai ye kanTa ho kar
nala-e-garm ne tasir ajab dikhlai
rah gaya misl-e-charagh aap mein ThanDa ho kar
yar ke ruKH ki sabahat ka tasawwur shab-e-hijr
aaya taskin ko meri nur ka taDka ho kar
dil se kahta hai gham-e-ulfat-e-jaanan dam-e-marg
tum to duniya se chale main rahun kis ka ho kar
chhoDna ai gham-e-ulfat na kabhi sath us ka
kahin ghabrae mera dil na akela ho kar
aae to wasl ka din ho to kahin bos-o-kanar
sab nikal jaegi sharm un ki pasina ho kar
jism-e-anwar ki latafat ki sana kya kije
jama-e-yar na utra kabhi maila ho kar
dahr ki dekhte hain past-o-buland ai 'zeba'
karbala jaenge is waste batha ho kar
