apne ahd-e-wafa se ru-gardani karta rahta hai
apne ahd-e-vafā se rū-gardānī kartā rahtā hai
merī sub.hoñ shāmoñ kī nigrānī kartā rahtā hai
kyā kahiye kis mushkil meñ baaqī hai mohabbat kā mīsāq
jis par aa.e din vo ḳhud nigrānī kartā rahtā hai
us ke apne ghar kā safāyā din ko kaise ho paayā
vo jo shab bhar shahr kī ḳhud nigrānī kartā rahtā hai
dil ne us ko bhulā dene kā azm to kitnī baar kiyā
dil pāgal hai ḳhud hī nā-farmānī kartā rahtā hai
merī nā-samjhī ke baa.is us ke masā.il ulajh ga.e
merī ḳhātir jo paidā āsānī kartā rahtā hai
yuuñ lagtā hai us ke din bhī puure hone vaale haiñ
hadd-e-bisāt se baḌh kar vo man-mānī kartā rahtā hai
us kī jhūTī tardīdoñ ko sun kar chup ho jaatā huuñ
mere ḳhilāf jo din bhar ġhalat-bayānī kartā rahtā hai
jis ko tū ne apne hāthoñ ūñchā kiyā hai jaan 'salīm'
mere ḳhilāf vahī to zahr-afshānī kartā rahtā hai
apne ahd-e-wafa se ru-gardani karta rahta hai
meri subhon shamon ki nigrani karta rahta hai
kya kahiye kis mushkil mein baqi hai mohabbat ka misaq
jis par aae din wo KHud nigrani karta rahta hai
us ke apne ghar ka safaya din ko kaise ho paya
wo jo shab bhar shahr ki KHud nigrani karta rahta hai
dil ne us ko bhula dene ka azm to kitni bar kiya
dil pagal hai KHud hi na-farmani karta rahta hai
meri na-samjhi ke bais us ke masail ulajh gae
meri KHatir jo paida aasani karta rahta hai
yun lagta hai us ke din bhi pure hone wale hain
hadd-e-bisat se baDh kar wo man-mani karta rahta hai
us ki jhuTi tardidon ko sun kar chup ho jata hun
mere KHilaf jo din bhar ghalat-bayani karta rahta hai
jis ko tu ne apne hathon uncha kiya hai jaan 'salim'
mere KHilaf wahi to zahr-afshani karta rahta hai
