phiri hui meri aankhen hain tegh-zan ki taraf
phirī huī mirī āñkheñ haiñ teġh-zan kī taraf
chalā hai chhoḌ ke bismil mujhe hiran kī taraf
banāyā toḌ ke ā.īna ā.īna-ḳhāna
na dekhī raah jo ḳhalvat se anjuman kī taraf
rah-e-vafā ko na chhoḌā vo andalīb huuñ maiñ
chhuTā qafas se to parvāz kī chaman kī taraf
gurez chāhiye tūl-e-amal se sālik ko
sunā hai raah ye jaatī hai rāhzan kī taraf
sarā-e-dahr meñ so.oge ġhāfilo kab tak
uTho to kyā tumheñ jaanā nahīñ vatan kī taraf
jo ahl-e-dil haiñ alag haiñ vo ahl-e-zāhir se
na maiñ huuñ shaiḳh kī jānib na barhaman kī taraf
jahān-e-hādsa-āgīn meñ bashar kā varūd
guzar habāb kā dariyā-e-maujzan kī taraf
isī umiid pe ham din ḳhizāñ ke kāTte haiñ
kabhī to bād-e-bahār aa.egī chaman kī taraf
bichhaḌ ke tujh se mujhe hai umiid milne kī
sunā hai ruuh ko aanā hai phir badan kī taraf
gavāh kaun mire qatl kā ho mahshar meñ
abhī se saarā zamāna hai teġh-zan kī taraf
ḳhabar dī uTh ke qayāmat ne us ke aane kī
ḳhudā hī ḳhair kare ruḳh hai anjuman kī taraf
vo apne ruḳh kī sabāhat ko aap dekhte haiñ
jhuke hue gul-e-nargis haiñ yāsman kī taraf
tamām bazm hai kyā mahv us kī bātoñ meñ
nazar dahan kī taraf kaan hai suḳhan kī taraf
asiir ho gayā dil gesuoñ meñ ḳhuub huā
chalā thā Duub ke marne chah-e-zaqan kī taraf
ye mai-kashoñ kī adā abr-e-tar bhī siikh ga.e
kinār-e-jū se jo uTThe chale chaman kī taraf
zahe-nasīb jo ho karbalā kī maut ai 'nazm'
ki uḌ ke ḳhāk-e-shifā aa.e ḳhud kafan kī taraf
phiri hui meri aankhen hain tegh-zan ki taraf
chala hai chhoD ke bismil mujhe hiran ki taraf
banaya toD ke aaina aaina-KHana
na dekhi rah jo KHalwat se anjuman ki taraf
rah-e-wafa ko na chhoDa wo andalib hun main
chhuTa qafas se to parwaz ki chaman ki taraf
gurez chahiye tul-e-amal se salik ko
suna hai rah ye jati hai rahzan ki taraf
sara-e-dahr mein sooge ghafilo kab tak
uTho to kya tumhein jaana nahin watan ki taraf
jo ahl-e-dil hain alag hain wo ahl-e-zahir se
na main hun shaiKH ki jaanib na barhaman ki taraf
jahan-e-hadsa-agin mein bashar ka warud
guzar habab ka dariya-e-maujzan ki taraf
isi umid pe hum din KHizan ke kaTte hain
kabhi to baad-e-bahaar aaegi chaman ki taraf
bichhaD ke tujh se mujhe hai umid milne ki
suna hai ruh ko aana hai phir badan ki taraf
gawah kaun mere qatl ka ho mahshar mein
abhi se sara zamana hai tegh-zan ki taraf
KHabar di uTh ke qayamat ne us ke aane ki
KHuda hi KHair kare ruKH hai anjuman ki taraf
wo apne ruKH ki sabahat ko aap dekhte hain
jhuke hue gul-e-nargis hain yasman ki taraf
tamam bazm hai kya mahw us ki baaton mein
nazar dahan ki taraf kan hai suKHan ki taraf
asir ho gaya dil gesuon mein KHub hua
chala tha Dub ke marne chah-e-zaqan ki taraf
ye mai-kashon ki ada abr-e-tar bhi sikh gae
kinar-e-ju se jo uTThe chale chaman ki taraf
zahe-nasib jo ho karbala ki maut ai 'nazm'
ki uD ke KHak-e-shifa aae KHud kafan ki taraf
