go jawani mein thi kaj-rai bahut
go javānī meñ thī kaj-rā.ī bahut
par javānī ham ko yaad aa.ī bahut
zer-e-burqa.a tū ne kyā dikhlā diyā
jam.a haiñ har sū tamāshā.ī bahut
haT pe is kī aur pis jaate haiñ dil
raas hai kuchh us ko ḳhud-rā.ī bahut
sarv yā gul aañkh meñ jachte nahīñ
dil pe hai naqsh us kī rānā.ī bahut
chuur thā zaḳhmoñ meñ aur kahtā thā dil
rāhat is taklīf meñ paa.ī bahut
aa rahī hai chāh-e-yūsuf se sadā
dost yaañ thoḌe haiñ aur bhaa.ī bahut
vasl ke ho ho ke sāmāñ rah ga.e
meñh na barsā aur ghaTā chhā.ī bahut
jāñ-nisārī par vo bol uTThe mirī
haiñ fidā.ī kam tamāshā.ī bahut
ham ne har adnā ko aalā kar diyā
ḳhāksārī apnī kaam aa.ī bahut
kar diyā chup vāqi.āt-e-dahr ne
thī kabhī ham meñ bhī goyā.ī bahut
ghaT ga.iiñ ḳhud talḳhiyāñ ayyām kī
yā ga.ī kuchh baḌh shakebā.ī bahut
ham na kahte the ki 'hālī' chup raho
rāst-goī meñ hai rusvā.ī bahut
go jawani mein thi kaj-rai bahut
par jawani hum ko yaad aai bahut
zer-e-burqa tu ne kya dikhla diya
jama hain har su tamashai bahut
haT pe is ki aur pis jate hain dil
ras hai kuchh us ko KHud-rai bahut
sarw ya gul aankh mein jachte nahin
dil pe hai naqsh us ki ranai bahut
chur tha zaKHmon mein aur kahta tha dil
rahat is taklif mein pai bahut
aa rahi hai chah-e-yusuf se sada
dost yan thoDe hain aur bhai bahut
wasl ke ho ho ke saman rah gae
meinh na barsa aur ghaTa chhai bahut
jaan-nisari par wo bol uTThe meri
hain fidai kam tamashai bahut
hum ne har adna ko aala kar diya
KHaksari apni kaam aai bahut
kar diya chup waqiat-e-dahr ne
thi kabhi hum mein bhi goyai bahut
ghaT gain KHud talKHiyan ayyam ki
ya gai kuchh baDh shakebai bahut
hum na kahte the ki 'haali' chup raho
rast-goi mein hai ruswai bahut
