    ham jal rahe the aur ba-zāhir nishāñ na thā

    dil lagī vo aag thī jis meñ dhuāñ na thā

    rokā thā mujh ko merī ḳhudī ke hijāb ne

    dekhā to un ke dar pe koī pāsbāñ na thā

    mauhūm jalva thā tire aks-e-ḳhayāl

    badlā ḳhayāl ne to saarā jahāñ na thā

    vo kar rahe the mujh ko vafāoñ meñ puḳhta-kār

    mashq-e-sitam hai madd-e-nazar imtihāñ na thā

    parvāz-e-fikr bhī rahī zauq-e-nazar ke saath

    pābandī-e-qafas se mujhe kuchh ziyāñ na thā

    thā e.atibār-e-naqs-o-kamāl-e-nigāh-e-shauq

    vo jalva jo ayaañ bhī nahīñ thā nihāñ na thā

    ham ko to iltifāt-e-karam rahā ḳhayāl

    varna zabāñ pe harf-e-tamannā girāñ na thā

    bijlī chamak chamak ke nazar Dāltī rahī

    girtī kahāñ chaman meñ mirā āshiyāñ na thā

    thī zindagī muhāl ġham-e-ishq ke baġhair

    jo ġham diyā gayā thā ġham-e-jāvedāñ na thā

    inkār karte kyā ki zalūm-o-jahūl the

    ye to nahīñ ki bār-e-amānat girāñ na thā

    'shākir' huā vafā-e-musalsal se kāmyāb

    āġhāz-e-ishq meñ to vo kuchh mehrbāñ na thā

    hum jal rahe the aur ba-zahir nishan na tha

    dil ki lagi wo aag thi jis mein dhuan na tha

    roka tha mujh ko meri KHudi ke hijab ne

    dekha to un ke dar pe koi pasban na tha

    mauhum jalwa tha tere aks-e-KHayal ka

    badla KHayal tu ne to sara jahan na tha

    wo kar rahe the mujh ko wafaon mein puKHta-kar

    mashq-e-sitam hai madd-e-nazar imtihan na tha

    parwaz-e-fikr bhi rahi zauq-e-nazar ke sath

    pabandi-e-qafas se mujhe kuchh ziyan na tha

    tha eatibar-e-naqs-o-kamal-e-nigah-e-shauq

    wo jalwa jo ayan bhi nahin tha nihan na tha

    hum ko to iltifat-e-karam ka raha KHayal

    warna zaban pe harf-e-tamanna giran na tha

    bijli chamak chamak ke nazar Dalti rahi

    girti kahan chaman mein mera aashiyan na tha

    thi zindagi muhaal gham-e-ishq ke baghair

    jo gham diya gaya tha gham-e-jawedan na tha

    inkar karte kya ki zalum-o-jahul the

    ye to nahin ki bar-e-amanat giran na tha

    'shakir' hua wafa-e-musalsal se kaamyab

    aaghaz-e-ishq mein to wo kuchh mehrban na tha
