fasl-e-junun mein daman-o-dil chaak bhi nahin
fasl-e-junūñ meñ dāman-o-dil chaak bhī nahīñ
kyā dasht hai ki uḌtī kahīñ ḳhaak bhī nahīñ
jiinā tirā muhāl to honā hī thā ki tū
is daur ke hisāb se chālāk bhī nahīñ
raqs-e-junūñ to ḳhair baḌī baat hai magar
ab shahr meñ numā.ish-e-idrāk bhī nahīñ
achchhā huā ki jald hī tū ne utaar dī
jachtī hai sab pe dard kī poshāk bhī nahīñ
dariyā kujā ki tishna-laboñ ke liye to ab
raste meñ koī dīda-e-namnāk bhī nahīñ
vo din bhī the ki aañkh bichhāte the barg-o-gul
ab mujh pe multafit ḳhas-o-ḳhāshāk bhī nahīñ
dhul jaa.eñ jis ke lams se dil kī kasāfateñ
bāñhoñ meñ vo tirā badan-e-pāk bhī nahīñ
kyuuñ sogvār ab bhī hai marg-e-zamīr par
vo vāqi.a thā utnā alamnāk bhī nahīñ
ik 'umr se kināra-e-be-chāragī pe huuñ
dariyā chaḌhā hai aur maiñ tairāk bhī nahīñ
kyuuñ ḳhushk ho gayā shajr-e-ārzū 'salīm'
mausam thā jabki ziist kā saffāk bhī nahīñ
fasl-e-junun mein daman-o-dil chaak bhi nahin
kya dasht hai ki uDti kahin KHak bhi nahin
jina tera muhaal to hona hi tha ki tu
is daur ke hisab se chaalak bhi nahin
raqs-e-junun to KHair baDi baat hai magar
ab shahr mein numaish-e-idrak bhi nahin
achchha hua ki jald hi tu ne utar di
jachti hai sab pe dard ki poshak bhi nahin
dariya kuja ki tishna-labon ke liye to ab
raste mein koi dida-e-namnak bhi nahin
wo din bhi the ki aankh bichhate the barg-o-gul
ab mujh pe multafit KHas-o-KHashak bhi nahin
dhul jaen jis ke lams se dil ki kasafaten
banhon mein wo tera badan-e-pak bhi nahin
kyun sogwar ab bhi hai marg-e-zamir par
wo waqia tha utna alamnak bhi nahin
ek 'umr se kinara-e-be-chaaragi pe hun
dariya chaDha hai aur main tairak bhi nahin
kyun KHushk ho gaya shajr-e-arzu 'salim'
mausam tha jabki zist ka saffak bhi nahin
