fasil-e-shahr-e-tamanna mein dar banate hue
fasīl-e-shahr-e-tamannā meñ dar banāte hue
ye kaun dil meñ dar aayā hai ghar banāte hue
nasheb-e-chashm-e-tamāshā banā gayā mujh ko
kahīñ bulandi-e-ayyām par banāte hue
maiñ kyā kahūñ ki abhī koī pesh-raft nahīñ
guzar rahā huuñ abhī rahguzar banāte hue
kise ḳhabar hai ki kitne nujūm TuuT gire
shab-e-siyāh se rañg-e-sahar banāte hue
pate kī baat bhī muñh se nikal hī jaatī hai
kabhī kabhī koī jhūTī ḳhabar banāte hue
magar ye dil mirā ye tā.ir-e-bahisht mirā
utar hī aayā kahīñ mustaqar banāte hue
diloñ ke baab meñ kyā daḳhl 'āftāb-husain'
so baat phail ga.ī muḳhtasar banāte hue
fasil-e-shahr-e-tamanna mein dar banate hue
ye kaun dil mein dar aaya hai ghar banate hue
nasheb-e-chashm-e-tamasha bana gaya mujh ko
kahin bulandi-e-ayyam par banate hue
main kya kahun ki abhi koi pesh-raft nahin
guzar raha hun abhi rahguzar banate hue
kise KHabar hai ki kitne nujum TuT gire
shab-e-siyah se rang-e-sahar banate hue
pate ki baat bhi munh se nikal hi jati hai
kabhi kabhi koi jhuTi KHabar banate hue
magar ye dil mera ye tair-e-bahisht mera
utar hi aaya kahin mustaqar banate hue
dilon ke bab mein kya daKHl 'aftab-husain'
so baat phail gai muKHtasar banate hue
