mujhe tum shohraton ke darmiyan gumnam likh dena

mujhe tum shohratoñ ke darmiyāñ gumnām likh denā

jahāñ dariyā mile be-āb merā naam likh denā

ye saarā hijr kā mausam ye saarī ḳhāna-vīrānī

ise ai zindagī mere junūñ ke naam likh denā

tum apne chāñd taare kahkashāñ chāhe jise denā

mirī āñkhoñ pe apnī diid kī ik shaam likh denā

mire andar panāheñ DhūñDtī phirtī hai ḳhāmoshī

lab-e-goyā mire andar bhī ik kohrām likh denā

vo mausam jā chukā jis meñ parinde chahchahāte the

ab in peḌoñ kī shāḳhoñ par sukūt-e-shām likh denā

shabistānoñ meñ lau dete hue kundan se jismoñ par

havā kī uñgliyoñ se vasl kā paiġhām likh denā

mujhe tum shohraton ke darmiyan gumnam likh dena

jahan dariya mile be-ab mera nam likh dena

ye sara hijr ka mausam ye sari KHana-virani

ise ai zindagi mere junun ke nam likh dena

tum apne chand tare kahkashan chahe jise dena

meri aankhon pe apni did ki ek sham likh dena

mere andar panahen DhunDti phirti hai KHamoshi

lab-e-goya mere andar bhi ek kohram likh dena

wo mausam ja chuka jis mein parinde chahchahate the

ab in peDon ki shaKHon par sukut-e-sham likh dena

shabistanon mein lau dete hue kundan se jismon par

hawa ki ungliyon se wasl ka paigham likh dena
