hausla koi shab-e-wasl nikalne na diya

hausla koī shab-e-vasl nikalne na diyā

dard-e-dil ne mujhe ik dam bhī sañbhalne na diyā

āsmānoñ ko dilā zabt ne jalne na diyā

ātishīñ-nāla mire muñh se nikalne na diyā

ham ne dil soz-e-tap-e-hijr se jalne na diyā

saath aahoñ ke dhuāñ muñh se nikalne na diyā

bāġhiyoñ ne ye kiyā zulm misāl-e-shamshād

naḳhl-e-ummīd mirā phūlne phalne na diyā

zikr-e-gesū-e-pareshāñ se pareshāñ rakkhā

dil ko maiñ ne shab-e-furqat meñ sañbhalne na diyā

ḳhanjar-e-nāz se manzūr jo thā qatl mujhe

nīmcha miyān se qātil kī nikalne na diyā

ai masīhā tap-e-furqat bhī balā hai koī

tere bīmār-e-mohabbat ko sañbhalne na diyā

ḳhauf-e-tārājī-e-gulshan kā use thā jo ḳhayāl

naala bulbul ne kabhī muñh se nikalne na diyā

laakh phaḌkā hī kiyā maiñ ne magar ai sayyād

murġh-e-dil ko qafas-e-tan se nikalne na diyā

bāzī-e-ishq bhalā ham se vo kyā le jaatā

'fāḳhir' us shoḳh kā chakma koī chalne na diyā

hausla koi shab-e-wasl nikalne na diya

dard-e-dil ne mujhe ek dam bhi sanbhalne na diya

aasmanon ko dila zabt ne jalne na diya

aatishin-nala mere munh se nikalne na diya

hum ne dil soz-e-tap-e-hijr se jalne na diya

sath aahon ke dhuan munh se nikalne na diya

baghiyon ne ye kiya zulm misal-e-shamshad

naKHl-e-ummid mera phulne phalne na diya

zikr-e-gesu-e-pareshan se pareshan rakkha

dil ko main ne shab-e-furqat mein sanbhalne na diya

KHanjar-e-naz se manzur jo tha qatl mujhe

nimcha miyan se qatil ki nikalne na diya

ai masiha tap-e-furqat bhi bala hai koi

tere bimar-e-mohabbat ko sanbhalne na diya

KHauf-e-taraji-e-gulshan ka use tha jo KHayal

nala bulbul ne kabhi munh se nikalne na diya

lakh phaDka hi kiya main ne magar ai sayyaad

murgh-e-dil ko qafas-e-tan se nikalne na diya

bazi-e-ishq bhala hum se wo kya le jata

'faKHir' us shoKH ka chakma koi chalne na diya
