bhiD thi lekin banam-e-dostan koi nahin tha
bhiiḌ thī lekin banām-e-dostāñ koī nahīñ thā
mehrbāñ sach kah rahā huuñ mehrbāñ koī nahīñ thā
aaj maiñ jis qarya-e-sar-sabz ke uupar khaḌā huuñ
ibtidā meñ us ke sar par āsmāñ koī nahīñ thā
mere hisse hī meñ likkhā thā samā'at ko tarasnā
varna atrāf-o-javānib be-zabāñ koī nahīñ thā
sub.h kaise kī hai fursat se batā.ūñgā kisī din
haañ yaqīñ jaano shab-e-rafta yahāñ koī nahīñ thā
dauḌtā phirtā thā kyā rag rag meñ merī aag sā phir
fasd khulvā.ī to ḳhuuñ jaisā nishāñ koī nahīñ thā
saḳht hairat hai ki kis ranj-e-musalsal meñ rahā maiñ
kār-o-bār-e-zīst meñ sūd-o-ziyāñ koī nahīñ thā
bhiD thi lekin banam-e-dostan koi nahin tha
mehrban sach kah raha hun mehrban koi nahin tha
aaj main jis qarya-e-sar-sabz ke upar khaDa hun
ibtida mein us ke sar par aasman koi nahin tha
mere hisse hi mein likkha tha sama'at ko tarasna
warna atraf-o-jawanib be-zaban koi nahin tha
subh kaise ki hai fursat se bataunga kisi din
han yaqin jaano shab-e-rafta yahan koi nahin tha
dauDta phirta tha kya rag rag mein meri aag sa phir
fasd khulwai to KHun jaisa nishan koi nahin tha
saKHt hairat hai ki kis ranj-e-musalsal mein raha main
kar-o-bar-e-zist mein sud-o-ziyan koi nahin tha
