ba.ad muddat ke khulā jauhar-e-nāyāb mirā
jo añdhere meñ thā raushan huā vo baab mirā
maiñ zamīñ vāloñ kī āñkhoñ meñ bharā huuñ lekin
āsmāñ vāloñ ne dekhā hai koī ḳhvāb mirā
itr-afshānī-e-qurbat se thī ma.amūr fazā
jazba-e-qatra-e-ḳhūñ kab huā sairāb mirā
kitne dariyāoñ pe thā kaalī ghaTāoñ kā julūs
ek ik buuñd kā pyāsā rahā tālāb mirā
mutma.in ho ga.e ahbāb mire ḳhush hai zamīñ
ik na.ī samt jo beḌā huā ġharqāb mirā
sab ke hoñToñ pe gulāboñ kā tabassum thā 'sabā'
mutma.in maiñ huuñ ki har zaḳhm hai shādāb mirā
baad muddat ke khula jauhar-e-nayab mera
jo andhere mein tha raushan hua wo bab mera
main zamin walon ki aankhon mein bhara hun lekin
aasman walon ne dekha hai koi KHwab mera
itr-afshani-e-qurbat se thi mamur faza
jazba-e-qatra-e-KHun kab hua sairab mera
kitne dariyaon pe tha kali ghaTaon ka julus
ek ek bund ka pyasa raha talab mera
mutmain ho gae ahbab mere KHush hai zamin
ek nai samt jo beDa hua gharqab mera
sab ke honTon pe gulabon ka tabassum tha 'saba'
mutmain main hun ki har zaKHm hai shadab mera
