abhi to aankhon mein na-dida KHwab baqi hain
abhī to āñkhoñ meñ nā-dīda ḳhvāb baaqī haiñ
jo vaqt likh nahīñ paayā vo baab baaqī haiñ
sazā jo agle sahīfoñ meñ thī tamām huī
magar sahīfa-e-dil ke azaab baaqī haiñ
karoge jamā bhalā kaise dil ke shīshoñ ko
abhī to dasht-e-falak meñ shahāb baaqī haiñ
uḌā ke le ga.ī āñdhī vo harf harf kitāb
jo saf.ha saf.ha haiñ dil ke sarāb baaqī haiñ
jo giilī ret pe tūfāñ bane guzar bhī ga.e
vo bhīgī palkoñ meñ ab tak sahāb baaqī haiñ
vahī to vaqt kī be-chehragī hai apnī shanāḳht
ki jis pe ab bhī hazāroñ naqāb baaqī haiñ
lahū ke phuul ḳhizāñ āshnā nahīñ 'tanvīr'
ki dasht dasht shafaq ke gulāb baaqī haiñ
abhi to aankhon mein na-dida KHwab baqi hain
jo waqt likh nahin paya wo bab baqi hain
saza jo agle sahifon mein thi tamam hui
magar sahifa-e-dil ke azab baqi hain
karoge jama bhala kaise dil ke shishon ko
abhi to dasht-e-falak mein shahab baqi hain
uDa ke le gai aandhi wo harf harf kitab
jo safha safha hain dil ke sarab baqi hain
jo gili ret pe tufan bane guzar bhi gae
wo bhigi palkon mein ab tak sahab baqi hain
wahi to waqt ki be-chehragi hai apni shanaKHt
ki jis pe ab bhi hazaron naqab baqi hain
lahu ke phul KHizan aashna nahin 'tanwir'
ki dasht dasht shafaq ke gulab baqi hain
