aankh ko jakDe the kal KHwab azabon ke
aañkh ko jakḌe the kal ḳhvāb azāboñ ke
maiñ sairāb khaḌā thā biich sarāboñ ke
tujh ko kho kar mujh par vo bhī din aa.e
chhup na sakā dukh pīchhe ka.ī naqāboñ ke
fikr kā tan kab Dhāñp sakī mad-hoshī tak
chhoḌ diye nashshoñ ne haath sharāboñ ke
umr inhī ke saath guzārī hai jānāñ
zaḳhm mujhe lagte haiñ phuul gulāboñ ke
ek savāl ne jab se mujh ko pahnā hai
sharminda haiñ saare rañg javāboñ ke
kis se pūchhūñ maiñ rasta ab tujh ghar kā
muñh takte haiñ ḳhālī varaq kitāboñ ke
jaane phir kab vaqt ye pal dohrā.egā
lag jā siine toḌ ke band hijāboñ ke
mulk meñ mere amn kī ḳhvāhish jān-e-man
bakrī jaise biich meñ sau qassāboñ ke
ḳhatm nahīñ 'shahzād' faqat tujh par taḳhlīq
ham bhī pyāre ḳhāliq haiñ kuchh ḳhvāboñ ke
aankh ko jakDe the kal KHwab azabon ke
main sairab khaDa tha bich sarabon ke
tujh ko kho kar mujh par wo bhi din aae
chhup na saka dukh pichhe kai naqabon ke
fikr ka tan kab Dhanp saki mad-hoshi tak
chhoD diye nashshon ne hath sharabon ke
umr inhi ke sath guzari hai jaanan
zaKHm mujhe lagte hain phul gulabon ke
ek sawal ne jab se mujh ko pahna hai
sharminda hain sare rang jawabon ke
kis se puchhun main rasta ab tujh ghar ka
munh takte hain KHali waraq kitabon ke
jaane phir kab waqt ye pal dohraega
lag ja sine toD ke band hijabon ke
mulk mein mere amn ki KHwahish jaan-e-man
bakri jaise bich mein sau qassabon ke
KHatm nahin 'shahzad' faqat tujh par taKHliq
hum bhi pyare KHaliq hain kuchh KHwabon ke
