hijr tha ya visal kis ka tha
hijr thā yā visāl kis kā thā
ḳhvāb thā yā ḳhayāl kis kā thā
sāmne vo hamāre baiThe the
dil meñ un ke ḳhayāl kis kā thā
ġhair se ham ne maat khaa.ī to
is meñ kahiye kamāl kis kā thā
ham gire haiñ agar bulandī se
dar-haqīqat zavāl kis kā thā
bach ke nikle jo lā-ta.alluq the
bach nikalnā muhāl kis kā thā
reg-e-sāhil pe naqsh baaqī hai
jism vo be-misāl kis kā thā
sher sunte haiñ merā kahte haiñ
aisā nāzuk ḳhayāl kis kā thā
baam par chāñd thā magar phir bhī
chāñdnī meñ jamāl kis kā thā
taan ham par hī aa ke TuuTī hai
pūchiyegā malāl kis kā thā
haq to ye hai nahīñ mile un se
phir ye collar pe baal kis kā thā
pūchhiye kyā kisī nujūmī se
vaqt kis kā hai saal kis kā thā
vo jo rahte haiñ sirf maazī meñ
kaise jāneñ ki haal kis kā thā
daar par chaḌh gayā 'ayāz' magar
kis ne pūchhā savāl kis kā thā
hijr tha ya visal kis ka tha
KHwab tha ya KHayal kis ka tha
samne wo hamare baiThe the
dil mein un ke KHayal kis ka tha
ghair se hum ne mat khai to
is mein kahiye kamal kis ka tha
hum gire hain agar bulandi se
dar-haqiqat zawal kis ka tha
bach ke nikle jo la-talluq the
bach nikalna muhaal kis ka tha
reg-e-sahil pe naqsh baqi hai
jism wo be-misal kis ka tha
sher sunte hain mera kahte hain
aisa nazuk KHayal kis ka tha
baam par chand tha magar phir bhi
chandni mein jamal kis ka tha
tan hum par hi aa ke TuTi hai
puchiyega malal kis ka tha
haq to ye hai nahin mile un se
phir ye collar pe baal kis ka tha
puchhiye kya kisi nujumi se
waqt kis ka hai sal kis ka tha
wo jo rahte hain sirf mazi mein
kaise jaanen ki haal kis ka tha
dar par chaDh gaya 'ayaz' magar
kis ne puchha sawal kis ka tha
