bazm-e-duniya jis ko kahte hain wo pagal-KHana tha
bazm-e-duniyā jis ko kahte haiñ vo pāgal-ḳhāna thā
ham ne ḳhud dekhā hai matlab kā har ik dīvāna thā
bāġhbāñ ye chaar tinke the paḌe rahte kahīñ
naḳhl-e-mātam par bhī kyā bhārī mirā kāshāna thā
ai shab-e-hijrāñ ziyāda paañv phailātī hai kyuuñ
bhar gayā jitnā hamārī 'umr kā paimāna thā
DhūñDo to but bhī yahīñ mil jā.eñge mard-e-ḳhudā
ham ne dekhā hai haram hī meñ kahīñ but-ḳhāna thā
kar gayā kyūñkar bayān-e-dard-e-dil un par asar
ye to ai 'nātiq' koī afsūñ na thā afsāna thā
bazm-e-duniya jis ko kahte hain wo pagal-KHana tha
hum ne KHud dekha hai matlab ka har ek diwana tha
baghban ye chaar tinke the paDe rahte kahin
naKHl-e-matam par bhi kya bhaari mera kashana tha
ai shab-e-hijran ziyaada panw phailati hai kyun
bhar gaya jitna hamari 'umr ka paimana tha
DhunDo to but bhi yahin mil jaenge mard-e-KHuda
hum ne dekha hai haram hi mein kahin but-KHana tha
kar gaya kyunkar bayan-e-dard-e-dil un par asar
ye to ai 'natiq' koi afsun na tha afsana tha
