maza lams ka be-zabani mein tha
maza lams kā be-zabānī meñ thā
ajab zā.iqa ḳhush-gumānī meñ thā
mirī vus.atoñ ko kahāñ jāntā
vo mahv apnī hī be-karānī meñ thā
miTāte rahe avvalīñ yaad ko
ki jo naqsh thā naqsh-e-sānī meñ thā
bahut der tak log sāhil pe the
safīna mirā jab ravānī meñ thā
hamīñ se na ādāb barte ga.e
salīqa bahut mezbānī meñ thā
mai-e-kohna meñ thā nasha-dar-nasha
magar jo maza taaza paanī meñ thā
hameñ vo hamīñ se judā kar gayā
baḌā zulm is mehrbānī meñ thā
safar meñ achānak sabhī ruk ga.e
ajab moḌ apnī kahānī meñ thā
maza lams ka be-zabani mein tha
ajab zaiqa KHush-gumani mein tha
meri wusaton ko kahan jaanta
wo mahw apni hi be-karani mein tha
miTate rahe awwalin yaad ko
ki jo naqsh tha naqsh-e-sani mein tha
bahut der tak log sahil pe the
safina mera jab rawani mein tha
hamin se na aadab barte gae
saliqa bahut mezbani mein tha
mai-e-kohna mein tha nasha-dar-nasha
magar jo maza taza pani mein tha
hamein wo hamin se juda kar gaya
baDa zulm is mehrbani mein tha
safar mein achanak sabhi ruk gae
ajab moD apni kahani mein tha
