girta raha main rah mein lekin sambhal gaya
girtā rahā maiñ raah meñ lekin sambhal gayā
maiñ aaj kis maqām kī jānib nikal gayā
sochā kiyā thā raah ye āsān hai magar
pahle qadam pe paañv mirā kyuuñ phisal gayā
adnā sā ik fareb thā badlā jo ye libās
aafat to tab paḌī ki maiñ jab ḳhud badal gayā
āñkheñ thī sharmsār kahīñ chain bhī nahīñ
us ke magar ḳhayāl se ye dil bahal gayā
ho gar ḳhatā sazā kā muqarrar hai ek din
'nāqid' zahe-nasīb ki vo vaqt Tal gayā
girta raha main rah mein lekin sambhal gaya
main aaj kis maqam ki jaanib nikal gaya
socha kiya tha rah ye aasan hai magar
pahle qadam pe panw mera kyun phisal gaya
adna sa ek fareb tha badla jo ye libas
aafat to tab paDi ki main jab KHud badal gaya
aankhen thi sharmsar kahin chain bhi nahin
us ke magar KHayal se ye dil bahal gaya
ho gar KHata saza ka muqarrar hai ek din
'naqid' zahe-nasib ki wo waqt Tal gaya
