baDhi jo had se to sare tilism toD gai

baḌhī jo had se to saare tilism toḌ ga.ī

vo ḳhush-dilī jo diloñ ko diloñ se joḌ ga.ī

abad kī raah pe be-ḳhvāb dhaḌkanoñ kī dhamak

jo so ga.e unheñ bujhte jagoñ meñ chhoḌ ga.ī

ye zindagī kī lagan hai ki rat-jagoñ kī tarañg

jo jāgte the unhī ko ye dhun jhiñjhoḌ ga.ī

vo ek Tiis jise terā naam yaad rahā

kabhī kabhī to mire dil kā saath chhoḌ ga.ī

rukā rukā tire lab par ajab suḳhan thā koī

tirī nigah bhī jise nā-tamām chhoḌ ga.ī

farāz-e-dil se utartī huī nadī 'amjad'

jahāñ jahāñ thā hasīñ vādiyoñ kā moḌ ga.ī

baDhi jo had se to sare tilism toD gai

wo KHush-dili jo dilon ko dilon se joD gai

abad ki rah pe be-KHwab dhaDkanon ki dhamak

jo so gae unhen bujhte jagon mein chhoD gai

ye zindagi ki lagan hai ki rat-jagon ki tarang

jo jagte the unhi ko ye dhun jhinjhoD gai

wo ek Tis jise tera nam yaad raha

kabhi kabhi to mere dil ka sath chhoD gai

ruka ruka tere lab par ajab suKHan tha koi

teri nigah bhi jise na-tamam chhoD gai

faraaz-e-dil se utarti hui nadi 'amjad'

jahan jahan tha hasin wadiyon ka moD gai
