ek qadam tegh pe aur ek sharar par rakkha
ek qadam teġh pe aur ek sharar par rakkhā
merī vahshat ne mujhe raqs-e-digar par rakkhā
mere mālik ne tujhe ā.ina-dārī de kar
nigarāñ tujh ko mire husn-e-nazar par rakkhā
lā-ta.alluq nazar aatā thā ba-zāhir lekin
shahr ko us ne mirī ḳhair-ḳhabar par rakkhā
zindagī tū ne qadam moḌ diye aur taraf
aur andar se mujhe aur safar par rakkhā
ahl-e-vahshat ko magar kaun batātā jā kar
ho gayā nāf-e-ġhazālīñ koī ghar par rakkhā
koñpleñ phuuT paḌīñ dast-e-duā se mere
dam-e-āmīn jo meñ dīda-e-tar par rakkhā
ḳhatm hotī hī nahīñ girya-o-zārī un kī
miir ne haath to har lafz ke sar par rakkhā
maiñ ne is Dar se use toḌ liyā hai 'tābish'
suukh jaa.e na kahīñ shāḳh-e-shajar par rakkhā
ek qadam tegh pe aur ek sharar par rakkha
meri wahshat ne mujhe raqs-e-digar par rakkha
mere malik ne tujhe aaina-dari de kar
nigaran tujh ko mere husn-e-nazar par rakkha
la-talluq nazar aata tha ba-zahir lekin
shahr ko us ne meri KHair-KHabar par rakkha
zindagi tu ne qadam moD diye aur taraf
aur andar se mujhe aur safar par rakkha
ahl-e-wahshat ko magar kaun batata ja kar
ho gaya naf-e-ghazalin koi ghar par rakkha
konplen phuT paDin dast-e-dua se mere
dam-e-amin jo mein dida-e-tar par rakkha
KHatm hoti hi nahin girya-o-zari un ki
mir ne hath to har lafz ke sar par rakkha
main ne is Dar se use toD liya hai 'tabish'
sukh jae na kahin shaKH-e-shajar par rakkha
