dil-o-nazar mein na paida hui shakebai

dil-o-nazar meñ na paidā huī shakebā.ī

kisī ke ġham ne tabī.at hazār bahlā.ī

tamām husn-o-mohabbat tamām ra.anā.ī

vo ik nigāh jo paiġhām-e-zindagī laa.ī

chhalak paḌeñ na kahīñ ashk merī āñkhoñ se

kisī ke dard-e-mohabbat kī ho na rusvā.ī

ġham-e-zamāna ke maare na rah sake zinda

nigāh-e-dost ne kyā kyā na kī masīhā.ī

na ruk sakeñge rah-e-ishq meñ junūñ ke qadam

ki baḌh rahā hai abhī zauq-e-ābla-pā.ī

vo jehd-e-jāma-darī hai na fikr-e-baḳhiyā-garī

ajiib haal meñ haiñ aaj tere saudā.ī

nazar paḌā na kahīñ vo ġhazāl-ram-ḳhurda

junūn-e-shauq ne kī laakh dasht-paimā.ī

mirī tarah to tamāsha na ban sakā koī

agarche ek jahāñ thā tirā tamāshā.ī

qarīb aa ke bhī ehsās-e-buad miT na sakā

ki tere ho ke bhī ham haiñ tire tamannā.ī

jo hirs-o-āz ke bande haiñ un ko kyā mālūm

vaqār-e-bandagī-o-azmat-e-jabīñ-sā.ī

har ek chiiz jahāñ sīm-o-zar meñ tultī hai

mire ḳhulūs kī kyā ho vahāñ pazīrā.ī

ye lāla-o-gul-o-nasrīñ ye anjum-o-mahtāb

kahāñ nahīñ tire jalvoñ kī ālam-ārā.ī

mujhe vo ahd vo din-rāt yaad aate haiñ

ki jab na thī tire ġham se koī shanāsā.ī

shab-e-firāq kī be-tābiyoñ ko kyā kahiye

kabhī kabhī to mire ġham ko bhī hañsī aa.ī

na rah sakā kisī aalam meñ bhī tirā 'muztar'

ki ġham huā na gavārā ḳhushī na raas aa.ī

dil-o-nazar mein na paida hui shakebai

kisi ke gham ne tabiat hazar bahlai

tamam husn-o-mohabbat tamam ranai

wo ek nigah jo paigham-e-zindagi lai

chhalak paDen na kahin ashk meri aankhon se

kisi ke dard-e-mohabbat ki ho na ruswai

gham-e-zamana ke mare na rah sake zinda

nigah-e-dost ne kya kya na ki masihai

na ruk sakenge rah-e-ishq mein junun ke qadam

ki baDh raha hai abhi zauq-e-abla-pai

wo jehd-e-jama-dari hai na fikr-e-baKHiya-gari

ajib haal mein hain aaj tere saudai

nazar paDa na kahin wo ghazal-ram-KHurda

junun-e-shauq ne ki lakh dasht-paimai

meri tarah to tamasha na ban saka koi

agarche ek jahan tha tera tamashai

qarib aa ke bhi ehsas-e-buad miT na saka

ki tere ho ke bhi hum hain tere tamannai

jo hirs-o-az ke bande hain un ko kya malum

waqar-e-bandagi-o-azmat-e-jabin-sai

har ek chiz jahan sim-o-zar mein tulti hai

mere KHulus ki kya ho wahan pazirai

ye lala-o-gul-o-nasrin ye anjum-o-mahtab

kahan nahin tere jalwon ki aalam-arai

mujhe wo ahd wo din-raat yaad aate hain

ki jab na thi tere gham se koi shanasai

shab-e-firaq ki be-tabiyon ko kya kahiye

kabhi kabhi to mere gham ko bhi hansi aai

na rah saka kisi aalam mein bhi tera 'muztar'

ki gham hua na gawara KHushi na ras aai
