jhagDe KHuda se ho gae ahd-e-shabab mein
jhagḌe ḳhudā se ho ga.e ahd-e-shabāb meñ
tab se gire paḌe haiñ jahān-e-ḳharāb meñ
kab kā vo jā chukā thā khulī aañkh jab mirī
maiñ us ko dekhtā hī rahā jaise ḳhvāb meñ
rañgīni-e-libās kā jamm-e-ġhafīr hai
shāyad ki maiñ na aa.uuñ tire intiḳhāb meñ
mujh par zakāt husn-e-suḳhan kī huī hai farz
shāmil huā huuñ sher ke ahl-e-nisāb meñ
uTTho ki ā.īna bhī kahīñ kā kahīñ gayā
rah jāoge yahīñ jo rahoge hijāb meñ
shāyad qalam davāt kī fursat na ho use
mere hī ḳhat ko bhej diyā hai javāb meñ
chhup-chhup ke dekhtā thā taġhāful kī aaḌ meñ
us ne barat liyā hai mujhe ijtināb meñ
vo sham-e-intizār kī lau kar gayā mujhe
maiñ raushni-e-taba.a se huuñ pech-o-tāb meñ
aa.iiñ havā.eñ duur se bāġh-e-bahisht kī
ḳhushbū bhī aa.ī der se kār-e-savāb meñ
ā.īna-e-nigāh meñ ta.alīm aur thī
bar-aks ho gayā jo likhā thā kitāb meñ
maiñ rahne vaalā shaam o sahar ke pare kā huuñ
Daalā gayā huuñ shaam o sahar ke hisāb meñ
is be-hisī ke biich meñ 'ehsās' kī ġhazal
dekho to ye sukūt suḳhan ke javāb meñ
jhagDe KHuda se ho gae ahd-e-shabab mein
tab se gire paDe hain jahan-e-KHarab mein
kab ka wo ja chuka tha khuli aankh jab meri
main us ko dekhta hi raha jaise KHwab mein
rangini-e-libas ka jamm-e-ghafir hai
shayad ki main na aaun tere intiKHab mein
mujh par zakat husn-e-suKHan ki hui hai farz
shamil hua hun sher ke ahl-e-nisab mein
uTTho ki aaina bhi kahin ka kahin gaya
rah jaoge yahin jo rahoge hijab mein
shayad qalam dawat ki fursat na ho use
mere hi KHat ko bhej diya hai jawab mein
chhup-chhup ke dekhta tha taghaful ki aaD mein
us ne barat liya hai mujhe ijtinab mein
wo sham-e-intizar ki lau kar gaya mujhe
main raushni-e-taba se hun pech-o-tab mein
aain hawaen dur se bagh-e-bahisht ki
KHushbu bhi aai der se kar-e-sawab mein
aaina-e-nigah mein talim aur thi
bar-aks ho gaya jo likha tha kitab mein
main rahne wala sham o sahar ke pare ka hun
Dala gaya hun sham o sahar ke hisab mein
is be-hisi ke bich mein 'ehsas' ki ghazal
dekho to ye sukut suKHan ke jawab mein
