dhoka bhi nahin tha koi unwan bhi nahin tha
dhokā bhī nahīñ thā koī unvāñ bhī nahīñ thā
aise meñ jiye jaane kā imkāñ bhī nahīñ thā
kyā jāniye kyā soch ke vaañ Duub ga.e ham
dariyā meñ to is dam kahīñ tūfāñ bhī nahīñ thā
ābād sarāboñ se sadā is kā jahāñ thā
sahrā mire dil sā kabhī vīrāñ bhī nahīñ thā
ik baat thī ye ham use socheñ ki na socheñ
haañ is ke sivā mas.ala-e-jāñ bhī nahīñ thā
ye jaan ke vo raqs kiyā ahl-e-junūñ ne
jo haath lagā un ke garebāñ bhī nahīñ thā
har saañs nikaltī hai tirī yaad meñ Duubī
aur bhuul ke jiinā tujhe āsāñ bhī nahīñ thā
kuchh phuul shagufta mire hoñToñ pe saje haiñ
ā.īna mujhe dekh ke hairāñ bhī nahīñ thā
phūloñ ke lahū se ye chaman-zār thā raushan
gulshan meñ kahīñ ḳhār-e-muġhīlāñ bhī nahīñ thā
hai baat baḌī jaan mirī kaam to aa.ī
vo qatl mujhe kar ke pashemāñ bhī nahīñ thā
in mast nigāhoñ ke ishāroñ ko samajhnā
mushkil bhī nahīñ thā koī āsāñ bhī nahīñ thā
duniyā ye bhalā kyuuñ mire qadmoñ meñ paḌī hai
maiñ is ke liye itnā pareshāñ bhī nahīñ thā
palkoñ ko sikhā dete rah-o-rasm bhī 'ḳhālid'
thī hijr kī shab aur charāġhāñ bhī nahīñ thā
dhoka bhi nahin tha koi unwan bhi nahin tha
aise mein jiye jaane ka imkan bhi nahin tha
kya jaaniye kya soch ke wan Dub gae hum
dariya mein to is dam kahin tufan bhi nahin tha
aabaad sarabon se sada is ka jahan tha
sahra mere dil sa kabhi viran bhi nahin tha
ek baat thi ye hum use sochen ki na sochen
han is ke siwa masala-e-jaan bhi nahin tha
ye jaan ke wo raqs kiya ahl-e-junun ne
jo hath laga un ke gareban bhi nahin tha
har sans nikalti hai teri yaad mein Dubi
aur bhul ke jina tujhe aasan bhi nahin tha
kuchh phul shagufta mere honTon pe saje hain
aaina mujhe dekh ke hairan bhi nahin tha
phulon ke lahu se ye chaman-zar tha raushan
gulshan mein kahin KHar-e-mughilan bhi nahin tha
hai baat baDi jaan meri kaam to aai
wo qatl mujhe kar ke pasheman bhi nahin tha
in mast nigahon ke ishaaron ko samajhna
mushkil bhi nahin tha koi aasan bhi nahin tha
duniya ye bhala kyun mere qadmon mein paDi hai
main is ke liye itna pareshan bhi nahin tha
palkon ko sikha dete rah-o-rasm bhi 'KHalid'
thi hijr ki shab aur charaghan bhi nahin tha
