aap bhi nahin aae nind bhi nahin aai
aap bhī nahīñ aa.e niiñd bhī nahīñ aa.ī
nīm-vā darīchoñ se jhāñktī hai tanhā.ī
jaag jaag uThte haiñ gan-kalī ke mīThe sur
chheḌ chheḌ jaatī hai gesuoñ kī purvā.ī
yuuñ mire ḳhayāloñ meñ terī yaad raqsāñ hai
jis tarah fazāoñ meñ gūñjtī hai shahnā.ī
gard-e-rāh bhī chup hai sañg-e-mīl bhī ḳhāmosh
tālibān-e-manzil kī kuchh ḳhabar nahīñ aa.ī
ik taraf ġham-e-duniyā ik taraf tirī yādeñ
aaj kal hayūloñ se khelte haiñ saudā.ī
jin guloñ ne paayā ho rañg-o-bū bagūloñ se
kaun chhīn saktā hai un guloñ kī ra.anā.ī
ye tane tane abrū ye harā-bharā chehrā
ham ne qahr sī lazzat pyaar meñ nahīñ paa.ī
ab to saaf suntā huuñ apne dil kī har dhaḌkan
aur kyā dikhā.egī ye tavīl tanhā.ī
bazm-e-dost meñ 'shahzād' tum bhī kuchh hañso bolo
chup rahe se hotī hai duur duur rusvā.ī
aap bhi nahin aae nind bhi nahin aai
nim-wa darichon se jhankti hai tanhai
jag jag uThte hain gan-kali ke miThe sur
chheD chheD jati hai gesuon ki purwai
yun mere KHayalon mein teri yaad raqsan hai
jis tarah fazaon mein gunjti hai shahnai
gard-e-rah bhi chup hai sang-e-mil bhi KHamosh
taliban-e-manzil ki kuchh KHabar nahin aai
ek taraf gham-e-duniya ek taraf teri yaaden
aaj kal hayulon se khelte hain saudai
jin gulon ne paya ho rang-o-bu bagulon se
kaun chhin sakta hai un gulon ki ranai
ye tane tane abru ye hara-bhara chehra
hum ne qahr si lazzat pyar mein nahin pai
ab to saf sunta hun apne dil ki har dhaDkan
aur kya dikhaegi ye tawil tanhai
bazm-e-dost mein 'shahzad' tum bhi kuchh hanso bolo
chup rahe se hoti hai dur dur ruswai
