ye kis ne kah diya tujhse ki sahil chahta hun main
ye kis ne kah diyā tujh se ki sāhil chāhtā huuñ maiñ
samundar huuñ samundar ko muqābil chāhtā huuñ maiñ
vo ik lamha jo tere qurb kī ḳhushbū se hai raushan
ab is lamhe ko pāband-e-salāsil chāhtā huuñ maiñ
vo chiñgārī jo hai mashshāq fann-e-sho.ala-sāzī meñ
use raushan tah-e-ḳhākistar-e-dil chāhtā huuñ maiñ
bahut be-zār hai umr-e-ravāñ sahrā-navardī se
pa.e-kār-e-junūñ taaza mashāġhil chāhtā huuñ maiñ
na ye ḳhvāhish ki vo miTTī meñ merī jazb ho jaa.e
na ḳhud ko dāstāñ meñ us kī shāmil chāhtā huuñ maiñ
ajab bismil hai 'ishrat' apne qātil se ye kahtā hai
sar-e-mahfil tujhe ai jān-e-mahfil chāhtā huuñ maiñ
ye kis ne kah diya tujh se ki sahil chahta hun main
samundar hun samundar ko muqabil chahta hun main
wo ek lamha jo tere qurb ki KHushbu se hai raushan
ab is lamhe ko paband-e-salasil chahta hun main
wo chingari jo hai mashshaq fann-e-shoala-sazi mein
use raushan tah-e-KHakistar-e-dil chahta hun main
bahut be-zar hai umr-e-rawan sahra-nawardi se
pae-kar-e-junun taza mashaghil chahta hun main
na ye KHwahish ki wo miTTi mein meri jazb ho jae
na KHud ko dastan mein us ki shamil chahta hun main
ajab bismil hai 'ishrat' apne qatil se ye kahta hai
sar-e-mahfil tujhe ai jaan-e-mahfil chahta hun main
