baja tha zoam agar apne baal-o-par ka tha

bajā thā zo.am agar apne bāl-o-par kā thā

ki shauq bhī to use chāñd ke safar kā thā

kahāñ se TuuT paḌī beach meñ fasīl-e-jahāñ

mo.āmla to faqat mere bām-o-dar kā thā

maiñ lauT aayā dabe paañv ghar ke āñgan se

makān ġhair kā darvāza apne ghar kā thā

ḳhud apne saa.e ko ghere meñ le ke baiTh gayā

ki ehtimām mire āḳhirī safar kā thā

chhupā.e baiThe the kuchh māh-o-sāl ham bhī vahīñ

jahāñ pe tazkira pyaar bhar kā thā

ham apne jazba-o-ehsās le ke pahuñche the

tamām khel vahāñ haath ke hunar kā thā

vo ab bhī halqa-e-dām nazar meñ phailā hai

jo sabz saaya tire pyaar ke shajar kā thā

mile jo us kī sahelī se ham to raaz khulā

ḳhatoñ meñ zikr kisī aur hī 'zafar' kā thā

baja tha zoam agar apne baal-o-par ka tha

ki shauq bhi to use chand ke safar ka tha

kahan se TuT paDi beach mein fasil-e-jahan

moamla to faqat mere baam-o-dar ka tha

main lauT aaya dabe panw ghar ke aangan se

makan ghair ka darwaza apne ghar ka tha

KHud apne sae ko ghere mein le ke baiTh gaya

ki ehtimam mere aaKHiri safar ka tha

chhupae baiThe the kuchh mah-o-sal hum bhi wahin

jahan pe tazkira pyar bhar ka tha

hum apne jazba-o-ehsas le ke pahunche the

tamam khel wahan hath ke hunar ka tha

wo ab bhi halqa-e-dam nazar mein phaila hai

jo sabz saya tere pyar ke shajar ka tha

mile jo us ki saheli se hum to raaz khula

KHaton mein zikr kisi aur hi 'zafar' ka tha
