raushni bhar KHala pe bar the hum
raushnī bhar ḳhalā pe baar the ham
dhund manzar pas-e-ġhubār the ham
dhuup meñ aa.e to sukūn milā
chhāñv meñ the to dāġhdār the ham
koī dastak na koī aahaT thī
muddatoñ vahm ke shikār the ham
but-garī meñ hunar bhī shāmil thā
sañg-sāzī se hoshiyār the ham
qarz koī bhī jism o jaañ pe na thā
zindagī par magar udhār the ham
zulmateñ to charāg-e-ḳhema thiiñ
ḳhalvatoñ ke gunāhgār the ham
fikr o ma.anī talāzme tashbīh
ai ġhazal tere jāñ-nisār the ham
'rind' thā bekasī kā lutf ajiib
ghar meñ rah kar bhī be-dayār the ham
raushni bhar KHala pe bar the hum
dhund manzar pas-e-ghubar the hum
dhup mein aae to sukun mila
chhanw mein the to daghdar the hum
koi dastak na koi aahaT thi
muddaton wahm ke shikar the hum
but-gari mein hunar bhi shamil tha
sang-sazi se hoshiyar the hum
qarz koi bhi jism o jaan pe na tha
zindagi par magar udhaar the hum
zulmaten to charag-e-KHema thin
KHalwaton ke gunahgar the hum
fikr o mani talazme tashbih
ai ghazal tere jaan-nisar the hum
'rind' tha bekasi ka lutf ajib
ghar mein rah kar bhi be-dayar the hum
