waraq waraq tujhe tahrir karta rahta hun
varaq varaq tujhe tahrīr kartā rahtā huuñ
maiñ zindagī tirī tash.hīr kartā rahtā huuñ
bahut aziiz hai mujh ko masāfatoñ kī thakan
safar ko paañv kī zanjīr kartā rahtā huuñ
musavviroñ ko hai zom-e-musavvirī lekin
maiñ apnī ziist ko tasvīr kartā rahtā huuñ
maiñ sauñp detā huuñ har raat apne ḳhvāboñ ko
har ek sub.h ko tābīr kartā rahtā huuñ
sipar banātā huuñ lafzoñ ko sher meñ lekin
qalam ko apne maiñ shamshīr kartā rahtā huuñ
hazār aib ḳhud apne hī naam meñ likh kar
maiñ terī raa.e hama-gīr kartā rahtā huuñ
vo merī fikr meñ badle kā zahr gholtā hai
magar maiñ zahr ko iksīr kartā rahtā huuñ
maiñ shahr shahr bhaTaktā huuñ aur rozāna
ḳhud apnī zaat kī tāmīr kartā rahtā huuñ
likhe haiñ hisse meñ mere 'ra.īs' sannāTe
navā-e-vaqt kī tasḳhīr kartā rahtā huuñ
waraq waraq tujhe tahrir karta rahta hun
main zindagi teri tashhir karta rahta hun
bahut aziz hai mujh ko masafaton ki thakan
safar ko panw ki zanjir karta rahta hun
musawwiron ko hai zom-e-musawwiri lekin
main apni zist ko taswir karta rahta hun
main saunp deta hun har raat apne KHwabon ko
har ek subh ko tabir karta rahta hun
sipar banata hun lafzon ko sher mein lekin
qalam ko apne main shamshir karta rahta hun
hazar aib KHud apne hi nam mein likh kar
main teri rae hama-gir karta rahta hun
wo meri fikr mein badle ka zahr gholta hai
magar main zahr ko iksir karta rahta hun
main shahr shahr bhaTakta hun aur rozana
KHud apni zat ki tamir karta rahta hun
likhe hain hisse mein mere 'rais' sannaTe
nawa-e-waqt ki tasKHir karta rahta hun
