ghuncha ghuncha mausam-e-rang-e-ada mein qaid tha
ġhuncha ġhuncha mausam-e-rañg-e-adā meñ qaid thā
dil vo nādāñ thā ki apnī hī anā meñ qaid thā
aañkh kī momī galī pyāsī thī pyāsī hī rahī
shabnamī bādal zamāne kī havā meñ qaid thā
be-ruḳhī kī ghar kī dīvāroñ pe thī chūnā-kalī
zarra zarra ajnabiyyat kī fazā meñ qaid thā
āsmāñ ke taaq par sajte rahe ik ik charāġh
maiñ zamīñ kā chāñd apne hī ḳhalā meñ qaid thā
raat ke ifrīt ne shab-ḳhūn maarā be-tarah
kārvān-e-sub.h zanjīr-e-duā meñ qaid thā
kaun thā vo jis ne apne ḳhuun se likkhā thā ḳhat
kis ke dil kā rañg is barg-e-hinā meñ qaid thā
aañkh ke āñgan se ḳhvāboñ kā parinda uḌ gayā
raat bhar 'shāhīn' yādoñ kī chitā meñ qaid thā
ghuncha ghuncha mausam-e-rang-e-ada mein qaid tha
dil wo nadan tha ki apni hi ana mein qaid tha
aankh ki momi gali pyasi thi pyasi hi rahi
shabnami baadal zamane ki hawa mein qaid tha
be-ruKHi ki ghar ki diwaron pe thi chuna-kali
zarra zarra ajnabiyyat ki faza mein qaid tha
aasman ke taq par sajte rahe ek ek charagh
main zamin ka chand apne hi KHala mein qaid tha
raat ke ifrit ne shab-KHun mara be-tarah
karwan-e-subh zanjir-e-dua mein qaid tha
kaun tha wo jis ne apne KHun se likkha tha KHat
kis ke dil ka rang is barg-e-hina mein qaid tha
aankh ke aangan se KHwabon ka parinda uD gaya
raat bhar 'shahin' yaadon ki chita mein qaid tha
