jo mil gai hain nigahen kabhi nigahon se
jo mil ga.ī haiñ nigāheñ kabhī nigāhoñ se
guzar ga.ī hai mohabbat hasīn rāhoñ se
charāġh jal ke agar bujh gayā to kyā hogā
mujhe na dekh mohabbat bharī nigāhoñ se
balā-kashoñ kī añdherī galī ko kyā jaane
vo zindagī jo guzartī hai shāh-rāhoñ se
laboñ pe mohr-e-ḳhamoshī lagā.ī jā.egī
diloñ kī baat kahī jā.egī nigāhoñ se
idhar kahā ki na chhūTe savāb kā jaada
udhar sajā bhī diyā raah ko gunāhoñ se
fazā-e-mai-kada-e-dil-kushā meñ aa.ī hai
hayāt ghuT ke jo niklī hai ḳhānqāhoñ se
mirī nazar kā taqāzā kuchh aur thā ai dost
milā na kuchh mah o anjum kī jalva-gāhoñ se
ḳhizāñ kī vādi-e-ġhurbat guzār leñ to 'shamīm'
mileñ dayār-e-bahārāñ ke kaj-kulāhoñ se
jo mil gai hain nigahen kabhi nigahon se
guzar gai hai mohabbat hasin rahon se
charagh jal ke agar bujh gaya to kya hoga
mujhe na dekh mohabbat bhari nigahon se
bala-kashon ki andheri gali ko kya jaane
wo zindagi jo guzarti hai shah-rahon se
labon pe mohr-e-KHamoshi lagai jaegi
dilon ki baat kahi jaegi nigahon se
idhar kaha ki na chhuTe sawab ka jada
udhar saja bhi diya rah ko gunahon se
faza-e-mai-kada-e-dil-kusha mein aai hai
hayat ghuT ke jo nikli hai KHanqahon se
meri nazar ka taqaza kuchh aur tha ai dost
mila na kuchh mah o anjum ki jalwa-gahon se
KHizan ki wadi-e-ghurbat guzar len to 'shamim'
milen dayar-e-bahaaran ke kaj-kulahon se
