ab mujhko kya KHabar wo yahan hai bhi ya nahin
ab mujh ko kyā ḳhabar vo yahāñ hai bhī yā nahīñ
har ik se shahr meñ to mirā rābta nahīñ
jannat banā to sakte haiñ is kā.enāt ko
lekin mirī tarah se koī sochtā nahīñ
jis rahguzar pe phuul saje haiñ mire liye
ai pā-e-shauq ab vo mirā rāsta nahīñ
zāhir se mutma.in hai mire aur ik naqāb
chehre pe jo paḌā hai use dekhtā nahīñ
jab tak thī dil meñ saañs bhī ḳhushbū banī rahī
hoñToñ pe aa ke baat meñ ab kuchh rahā nahīñ
ik vaqt thā ki raah guzarnā muhāl thā
ab muḌ ke rāste meñ koī dekhtā nahīñ
ab shaam ho ga.ī hai mujhe sonā chāhiye
sūraj tire ḳhayāl kā garche Dhalā nahīñ
ab mujh ko kya KHabar wo yahan hai bhi ya nahin
har ek se shahr mein to mera rabta nahin
jannat bana to sakte hain is kaenat ko
lekin meri tarah se koi sochta nahin
jis rahguzar pe phul saje hain mere liye
ai pa-e-shauq ab wo mera rasta nahin
zahir se mutmain hai mere aur ek naqab
chehre pe jo paDa hai use dekhta nahin
jab tak thi dil mein sans bhi KHushbu bani rahi
honTon pe aa ke baat mein ab kuchh raha nahin
ek waqt tha ki rah guzarna muhaal tha
ab muD ke raste mein koi dekhta nahin
ab sham ho gai hai mujhe sona chahiye
suraj tere KHayal ka garche Dhala nahin
