aisa manzar to kabhi dekha na tha
aisā manzar to kabhī dekhā na thā
raushnī meñ bhī mirā saaya na thā
pyaar ke bādal to guzre the magar
dil ke sahrā meñ koī barsā na thā
umr-bhar paḌhtā rahā aisā bhī ḳhat
tū ne mere naam jo likkhā na thā
jism kī dīvār ik thī darmiyāñ
maiñ ne pā kar bhī tujhe paayā na thā
yuuñ to shabnam thā magar ai dosto
maiñ kisī bhī phuul par bikhrā na thā
maut siine se lagā lene ko hai
zindagī ne haal tak pūchhā na thā
ik hujūm-e-mah-vashāñ thā bazm meñ
bas vahī ik chāñd kā TukḌā na thā
aisa manzar to kabhi dekha na tha
raushni mein bhi mera saya na tha
pyar ke baadal to guzre the magar
dil ke sahra mein koi barsa na tha
umr-bhar paDhta raha aisa bhi KHat
tu ne mere nam jo likkha na tha
jism ki diwar ek thi darmiyan
main ne pa kar bhi tujhe paya na tha
yun to shabnam tha magar ai dosto
main kisi bhi phul par bikhra na tha
maut sine se laga lene ko hai
zindagi ne haal tak puchha na tha
ek hujum-e-mah-washan tha bazm mein
bas wahi ek chand ka TukDa na tha
