dil bahut masruf tha kal aaj be-karon mein hai
dil bahut masrūf thā kal aaj be-kāroñ meñ hai
saat pardoñ meñ jo rahtā thā vo bāzāroñ meñ hai
ḳhaak ke putle falak kī sarhadoñ ko chhū chuke
aur jise insān kahte haiñ abhī ġhāroñ meñ hai
laaj rakh lete haiñ merī muñh pe kuchh kahte nahīñ
dushmanī kā kuchh salīqa to mire pyāroñ meñ hai
sab ko dekhā aur kisī ko dekh kar TuuTā nahīñ
aa.ina shāyad abhī apne parastāroñ meñ hai
dhuup kaisī thī ki mere haath kaale kar ga.ī
tīrgī kā rañg shāyad nuur ke dhāroñ meñ hai
sab sadā.eñ lafz haiñ lafzoñ ke pīchhe kuchh nahīñ
dekhnā ye hai ki koī sar bhī dastāroñ meñ hai
bar-sar-e-paikār donoñ haiñ natīja kuchh nahīñ
josh hai dariyāoñ meñ aur sabr dīvāroñ meñ hai
ḳhair o shar kī mish.aloñ ko tū bujhātā kyuuñ nahīñ
maiñ to kyā huuñ ik farishta bhī gunahgāroñ meñ hai
dekhte kyā ho ki ḳhud manzar tumheñ takne lagā
bechte kyā ho ki yūsuf bhī ḳharīdāroñ meñ hai
koī bhī manzil nahīñ apnī kashish donoñ taraf
paañv miTTī meñ gaḌe haiñ aañkh sayyāroñ meñ hai
ab haqīqat jaan kar 'shahzād' kyā lenā mujhe
vaj.h-e-ġhāza hī sahī sho.ala to ruḳhsāroñ meñ hai
dil bahut masruf tha kal aaj be-karon mein hai
sat pardon mein jo rahta tha wo bazaron mein hai
KHak ke putle falak ki sarhadon ko chhu chuke
aur jise insan kahte hain abhi ghaaron mein hai
laj rakh lete hain meri munh pe kuchh kahte nahin
dushmani ka kuchh saliqa to mere pyaron mein hai
sab ko dekha aur kisi ko dekh kar TuTa nahin
aaina shayad abhi apne parastaron mein hai
dhup kaisi thi ki mere hath kale kar gai
tirgi ka rang shayad nur ke dhaaron mein hai
sab sadaen lafz hain lafzon ke pichhe kuchh nahin
dekhna ye hai ki koi sar bhi dastaron mein hai
bar-sar-e-paikar donon hain natija kuchh nahin
josh hai dariyaon mein aur sabr diwaron mein hai
KHair o shar ki mishalon ko tu bujhata kyun nahin
main to kya hun ek farishta bhi gunahgaron mein hai
dekhte kya ho ki KHud manzar tumhein takne laga
bechte kya ho ki yusuf bhi KHaridaron mein hai
koi bhi manzil nahin apni kashish donon taraf
panw miTTi mein gaDe hain aankh sayyaron mein hai
ab haqiqat jaan kar 'shahzad' kya lena mujhe
wajh-e-ghaza hi sahi shoala to ruKHsaron mein hai
