charaghon ke bujhane ko hawa be-iKHtiyar aai
charāġhoñ ke bujhāne ko havā be-iḳhtiyār aa.ī
gulāboñ kī mahak bikhrī to āvāz-e-sharār aa.ī
bagūloñ ne safar meñ āñdhiyoñ kā āsmāñ dekhā
magar ik fāḳhta apne shajar tak be-ġhubār aa.ī
jise tū ne ujālā jaan kar chehre pe likkhā thā
vahī shohrat tirī rusvā.iyoñ ke ham-kanār aa.ī
añdheroñ meñ mujhe ḳhud ik sitāra DhūñDne aayā
ki shahr be-hunar se ik sadā-e-e'tibār aa.ī
mirī āñkhoñ meñ jitne rañg the sab jal ga.e 'jāzib'
magar vo mujh se milne jab bhī aa.ī be-qarār aa.ī
charaghon ke bujhane ko hawa be-iKHtiyar aai
gulabon ki mahak bikhri to aawaz-e-sharar aai
bagulon ne safar mein aandhiyon ka aasman dekha
magar ek faKHta apne shajar tak be-ghubar aai
jise tu ne ujala jaan kar chehre pe likkha tha
wahi shohrat teri ruswaiyon ke ham-kanar aai
andheron mein mujhe KHud ek sitara DhunDne aaya
ki shahr be-hunar se ek sada-e-e'tibar aai
meri aankhon mein jitne rang the sab jal gae 'jazib'
magar wo mujh se milne jab bhi aai be-qarar aai
