viran bahut hai KHwab-mahal jagte raho
vīrāñ bahut hai ḳhvāb-mahal jāgte raho
ham-sā.e meñ khaḌī hai ajal jāgte raho
jis par nisār nargis-e-shahlā kī tamkenat
vo aañkh is ghaḌī hai sajal jāgte raho
ye lamha-e-umīd bhī hai vaqt-e-ḳhauf bhī
hāsil na hogā is kā badal jāgte raho
jin bāzuoñ pe chāragarī kā madār thā
vo to kabhī ke ho ga.e shal jāgte raho
zehnoñ meñ thā irāda-e-shab-ḳhūn kal talak
ab ho rahā hai rū-ba-amal jāgte raho
jis raat meñ na hijr ho ne vasl 'ajmalī'
us raat meñ kahāñ kī ġhazal jāgte raho
viran bahut hai KHwab-mahal jagte raho
ham-sae mein khaDi hai ajal jagte raho
jis par nisar nargis-e-shahla ki tamkenat
wo aankh is ghaDi hai sajal jagte raho
ye lamha-e-umid bhi hai waqt-e-KHauf bhi
hasil na hoga is ka badal jagte raho
jin bazuon pe chaaragari ka madar tha
wo to kabhi ke ho gae shal jagte raho
zehnon mein tha irada-e-shab-KHun kal talak
ab ho raha hai ru-ba-amal jagte raho
jis raat mein na hijr ho ne wasl 'ajmali'
us raat mein kahan ki ghazal jagte raho
