dil bhī dāġh-e-naqsh-e-kuhan se bujhā huā thā
chāñd ke gird bhī ik haala sā banā huā thā
us ko ek ġhazal pahuñchānī thī jaldī meñ
lekin raste meñ sannāTā khaḌā huā thā
sho.ala chuum ke rakkhe us ne saañs diye meñ
maiñ ne jhuk kar dekhā kājal bahā huā thā
chhat se chehre par girte hī rahe sitāre
āsmān kā ḳhema thoḌā phaTā huā thā
bastī se nikle haiñ kuchh miTTī ke khilaune
insānoñ kā nām-o-nishāñ tak miTā huā thā
haath bāñdh kar mere saare adū khaḌe the
lekin maiñ apnī taḳhrīb pe tulā huā thā
mushk bharī hai maiñ ne donoñ hāthoñ kaTā kar
sochoñ ke paanī par pahra lagā huā thā
us kī āñkheñ bhī kuchh roī roī sī thiiñ
aur maiñ bhī us shaam bahut hī thakā huā thā
bhiig rahā thā sabza os ke motī pahne
sūkhā bādal kuñ.eñ ke andar girā huā thā
bachcha ik pahiye ko le kar bhaag rahā thā
vaqt jhukī dīvār ke uupar bahā huā thā
shāh-rāhoñ par ukhḌe ukhḌe saañs paḌe the
dariyā bhārī shahr ke nīche dabā huā thā
siine se sāñsoñ kā rishta TuuT chukā thā
qaidī ke pairoñ kā taalā khulā huā thā
dil bhi dagh-e-naqsh-e-kuhan se bujha hua tha
chand ke gird bhi ek haala sa bana hua tha
us ko ek ghazal pahunchani thi jaldi mein
lekin raste mein sannaTa khaDa hua tha
shoala chum ke rakkhe us ne sans diye mein
main ne jhuk kar dekha kajal baha hua tha
chhat se chehre par girte hi rahe sitare
aasman ka KHema thoDa phaTa hua tha
basti se nikle hain kuchh miTTi ke khilaune
insanon ka nam-o-nishan tak miTa hua tha
hath bandh kar mere sare adu khaDe the
lekin main apni taKHrib pe tula hua tha
mushk bhari hai main ne donon hathon kaTa kar
sochon ke pani par pahra laga hua tha
us ki aankhen bhi kuchh roi roi si thin
aur main bhi us sham bahut hi thaka hua tha
bhig raha tha sabza os ke moti pahne
sukha baadal kunen ke andar gira hua tha
bachcha ek pahiye ko le kar bhag raha tha
waqt jhuki diwar ke upar baha hua tha
shah-rahon par ukhDe ukhDe sans paDe the
dariya bhaari shahr ke niche daba hua tha
sine se sanson ka rishta TuT chuka tha
qaidi ke pairon ka tala khula hua tha
