chalo ye to hadsa ho gaya ki wo saeban nahin raha
chalo ye to hādsa ho gayā ki vo sā.ebān nahīñ rahā
zarā ye bhī soch lo ek din agar āsmān nahīñ rahā
ye batā ki kaun sī jañg meñ maiñ lahūluhān nahīñ rahā
magar aaj bhī tire shahr meñ koī mujh ko maan nahīñ rahā
ye nahīñ ki merī zamīn par koī āsamān nahīñ rahā
magar āsmān kabhī mire tire darmiyān nahīñ rahā
shab-e-hijr ne havas aur ishq ke saare farq miTā diye
koī chārpā.ī chaTaḳh ga.ī to kisī meñ baan nahīñ rahā
sabhī zindagī pe farefta koī maut par nahīñ shefta
sabhī sūd-ḳhor to ho ga.e haiñ koī paThān nahīñ rahā
na laboñ pe ġham kī hikāyateñ na vo be-ruḳhī kī shikāyateñ
ye itaab hai shab-e-vasl kā ki maiñ ḳhush-bayān nahīñ rahā
isī be-ruḳhī meñ hazār ruḳh haiñ purāne rishte ke sāhibo
koī kam nahīñ hai ki jaan kar bhī vo mujh ko jaan nahīñ rahā
chalo ye to hadsa ho gaya ki wo saeban nahin raha
zara ye bhi soch lo ek din agar aasman nahin raha
ye bata ki kaun si jang mein main lahuluhan nahin raha
magar aaj bhi tere shahr mein koi mujh ko man nahin raha
ye nahin ki meri zamin par koi aasaman nahin raha
magar aasman kabhi mere tere darmiyan nahin raha
shab-e-hijr ne hawas aur ishq ke sare farq miTa diye
koi chaarpai chaTaKH gai to kisi mein ban nahin raha
sabhi zindagi pe farefta koi maut par nahin shefta
sabhi sud-KHor to ho gae hain koi paThan nahin raha
na labon pe gham ki hikayaten na wo be-ruKHi ki shikayaten
ye itab hai shab-e-wasl ka ki main KHush-bayan nahin raha
isi be-ruKHi mein hazar ruKH hain purane rishte ke sahibo
koi kam nahin hai ki jaan kar bhi wo mujh ko jaan nahin raha
