aaine ke ru-ba-ru ek aaina rakhta hun main
aa.ine ke rū-ba-rū ik aa.ina rakhtā huuñ maiñ
rāt-din hairat meñ ḳhud ko mubtalā rakhtā huuñ maiñ
dostoñ vaalī bhī ik ḳhūbī hai un meñ is liye
dushmanoñ se bhī musalsal rābta rakhtā huuñ maiñ
roz-o-shab maiñ ghūmtā huuñ vaqt kī pur-kār par
apne chāroñ samt koī dā.era rakhtā huuñ maiñ
khaTkhaTāne kī bhī zahmat koī āḳhir kyuuñ kare
is liye bhī ghar kā darvāza khulā rakhtā huuñ maiñ
āj-kal ḳhud se bhī hai ranjish kā koī silsila
āj-kal ḳhud se bhī thoḌā fāsla rakhtā huuñ maiñ
chand yādeñ ek chehra ek ḳhvāhish ek ḳhvāb
apne dil meñ aur kyā un ke sivā rakhtā huuñ maiñ
chand tasvīreñ kitābeñ ḳhushbueñ aur ek phuul
apnī almārī meñ 'tābish' aur kyā rakhtā huuñ maiñ
aaine ke ru-ba-ru ek aaina rakhta hun main
raat-din hairat mein KHud ko mubtala rakhta hun main
doston wali bhi ek KHubi hai un mein is liye
dushmanon se bhi musalsal rabta rakhta hun main
roz-o-shab main ghumta hun waqt ki pur-kar par
apne chaaron samt koi daera rakhta hun main
khaTkhaTane ki bhi zahmat koi aaKHir kyun kare
is liye bhi ghar ka darwaza khula rakhta hun main
aaj-kal KHud se bhi hai ranjish ka koi silsila
aaj-kal KHud se bhi thoDa fasla rakhta hun main
chand yaaden ek chehra ek KHwahish ek KHwab
apne dil mein aur kya un ke siwa rakhta hun main
chand taswiren kitaben KHushbuen aur ek phul
apni almari mein 'tabish' aur kya rakhta hun main
