sawal dil ka sham-e-gham ko aur udas kar gaya
savāl dil kā shām-e-ġham ko aur udaas kar gayā
tire vajūd meñ jo ek maiñ thā vo kidhar gayā
tilism-e-shauq fikr-e-zinda aur karb-e-āgahī
tamām 'umr kā safar nigāh se guzar gayā
chale to hausla javāñ thā mauj-e-gul thī aarzū
jidhar bhī aañkh uTh ga.ī samāñ nikhar nikhar gayā
kabhī añdherī shab meñ ik muhīb dasht sāmne
kabhī mah-e-tamām saath saath tā-sahar gayā
har ek daur munfarid thā ab bhī dil pe naqsh hai
gayā to yuuñ lagā ki jī kā ek hissa mar gayā
na yaad kī chubhan koī na koī lau malāl kī
maiñ jaane kitnī duur yūñhī ḳhud se be-ḳhabar gayā
nigāh-e-dost dil-navāz bhī girah-kushā bhī thī
khulā jo dil pe zindagī kā bhed jī Thahar gayā
jahāñ vajūd meñ thā ''maiñ'' ab ek aur naam hai
ki merā bigḌā kaam us ke lutf se sañvar gayā
vo sail-e-nūr shab kī ibtidā se tā-sahar gayā
dil us ke bal pe apne bahr-e-ġham ke paar utar gayā
sawal dil ka sham-e-gham ko aur udas kar gaya
tere wajud mein jo ek main tha wo kidhar gaya
tilism-e-shauq fikr-e-zinda aur karb-e-agahi
tamam 'umr ka safar nigah se guzar gaya
chale to hausla jawan tha mauj-e-gul thi aarzu
jidhar bhi aankh uTh gai saman nikhar nikhar gaya
kabhi andheri shab mein ek muhib dasht samne
kabhi mah-e-tamam sath sath ta-sahar gaya
har ek daur munfarid tha ab bhi dil pe naqsh hai
gaya to yun laga ki ji ka ek hissa mar gaya
na yaad ki chubhan koi na koi lau malal ki
main jaane kitni dur yunhi KHud se be-KHabar gaya
nigah-e-dost dil-nawaz bhi girah-kusha bhi thi
khula jo dil pe zindagi ka bhed ji Thahar gaya
jahan wajud mein tha main ab ek aur nam hai
ki mera bigDa kaam us ke lutf se sanwar gaya
wo sail-e-nur shab ki ibtida se ta-sahar gaya
dil us ke bal pe apne bahr-e-gham ke par utar gaya
