dekha use dil-gir to dil-gir hua main
dekhā use dil-gīr to dil-gīr huā maiñ
kis dard kā rishta thā ki zanjīr huā maiñ
jis ḳhaak kā paivand hue nauhagar-e-harf
us ḳhaak kī tāsīr se iksīr huā maiñ
ai bād-o-tar-o-tāza mujhe ġhaur se paḌh le
qirtās-e-pazīrā.ī pe tahrīr huā maiñ
kis hairat-e-ā.īna ke naḳhchīr haiñ donoñ
tasvīr huā vo kabhī tasvīr huā maiñ
sau baar jo andar se maiñ TuuTā huuñ to ik baar
bāhar se nazar aayā ki ta.amīr huā maiñ
jo maiñ ne kabhī niiñd meñ dekhā hī nahīñ thā
dukh ye hai ki us ḳhvāb kī ta.abīr huā maiñ
kis hijr se guzrā huuñ ki be-sāḳhta 'mohsin'
lailā-e-tamannā se baġhal-gīr huā maiñ
dekha use dil-gir to dil-gir hua main
kis dard ka rishta tha ki zanjir hua main
jis KHak ka paiwand hue nauhagar-e-harf
us KHak ki tasir se iksir hua main
ai baad-o-tar-o-taza mujhe ghaur se paDh le
qirtas-e-pazirai pe tahrir hua main
kis hairat-e-aina ke naKHchir hain donon
taswir hua wo kabhi taswir hua main
sau bar jo andar se main TuTa hun to ek bar
bahar se nazar aaya ki tamir hua main
jo main ne kabhi nind mein dekha hi nahin tha
dukh ye hai ki us KHwab ki tabir hua main
kis hijr se guzra hun ki be-saKHta 'mohsin'
laila-e-tamanna se baghal-gir hua main
