jaur-e-zamīñ na thā sitam-e-āsmāñ na thā
vo bhī thā vaqt jab ki ġham-e-do-jahāñ na thā
koī bhī lutf-e-zīst tah-e-āsmāñ na thā
duniyā mirī ḳharāb thī tū mehrbāñ na thā
suntā ye kaun zabt pe qaabū nahīñ hai ab
achchhā huā jo koī mirā rāz-dāñ na thā
dīvāngī ne baat banā dī ki us se maiñ
zid kar rahā huuñ ab ki ye merā bayāñ na thā
badnām ḳhud hue ho zabāñ se nikāl kar
merā sivā tumhāre koī rāz-dāñ na thā
sajdoñ kī daad mil ga.ī bāb-e-qubūl se
maanā nazar ke sāmne vo āstāñ na thā
māyūsī-e-nazar ke manāzir haiñ ḳhaufnāk
phir aap hī kaheñge mujhe ye gumāñ na thā
vo mere sāmne the maiñ thā un ke sāmne
jab tak ki merā raaz kisī par ayaañ na thā
lillāh ham se qissa-e-'ālim' na pūchhiye
sunte haiñ laash par koī bhī nauha-ḳhvāñ na thā
jaur-e-zamin na tha sitam-e-asman na tha
wo bhi tha waqt jab ki gham-e-do-jahan na tha
koi bhi lutf-e-zist tah-e-asman na tha
duniya meri KHarab thi tu mehrban na tha
sunta ye kaun zabt pe qabu nahin hai ab
achchha hua jo koi mera raaz-dan na tha
diwangi ne baat bana di ki us se main
zid kar raha hun ab ki ye mera bayan na tha
badnam KHud hue ho zaban se nikal kar
mera siwa tumhaare koi raaz-dan na tha
sajdon ki dad mil gai bab-e-qubul se
mana nazar ke samne wo aastan na tha
mayusi-e-nazar ke manazir hain KHaufnak
phir aap hi kahenge mujhe ye guman na tha
wo mere samne the main tha un ke samne
jab tak ki mera raaz kisi par ayan na tha
lillah hum se qissa-e-'alim' na puchhiye
sunte hain lash par koi bhi nauha-KHwan na tha
