kahan na-jaane chala gaya intizar kar ke
kahāñ na-jāne chalā gayā intizār kar ke
yahāñ bhī hotā thā ek mausam-e-bahār kar ke
jo ham pe aisā na kār-e-duniyā kā jabr hotā
to ham bhī rahte yahāñ junūñ iḳhtiyār kar ke
na-jāne kis samt jā basī bād-e-yād-parvar
hamāre atrāf ḳhushbuoñ kā hisār kar ke
kaTeñgī kis din madār-o-mehvar kī ye tanābeñ
ki thak ga.e ham hisāb-e-lail-o-nahār kar ke
tirī haqīqat-pasand duniyā meñ aa base haiñ
ham apne ḳhvāboñ kī saarī raunaq nisār kar ke
ye dil to siine meñ kis qarīne se gūñjtā thā
ajiib hañgāma kar diyā be-qarār kar ke
har ek manzar har ek ḳhalvat gañvā chuke haiñ
ham ek mahfil kī yaad par inhisār kar ke
tamām lamhe vazāhatoñ meñ guzar ga.e haiñ
hamārī āñkhoñ meñ ik suḳhan ko ġhubār kar ke
ye ab khulā hai ki us meñ motī bhī DhūñDte the
ki ham to bas aa ga.e haiñ dariyā ko paar kar ke
ba-qadr-e-ḳhvāb-e-talab lahū hai na zindagī hai
adā karoge kahāñ se itnā udhār kar ke
kahan na-jaane chala gaya intizar kar ke
yahan bhi hota tha ek mausam-e-bahaar kar ke
jo hum pe aisa na kar-e-duniya ka jabr hota
to hum bhi rahte yahan junun iKHtiyar kar ke
na-jaane kis samt ja basi baad-e-yaad-parwar
hamare atraf KHushbuon ka hisar kar ke
kaTengi kis din madar-o-mehwar ki ye tanaben
ki thak gae hum hisab-e-lail-o-nahaar kar ke
teri haqiqat-pasand duniya mein aa base hain
hum apne KHwabon ki sari raunaq nisar kar ke
ye dil to sine mein kis qarine se gunjta tha
ajib hangama kar diya be-qarar kar ke
har ek manzar har ek KHalwat ganwa chuke hain
hum ek mahfil ki yaad par inhisar kar ke
tamam lamhe wazahaton mein guzar gae hain
hamari aankhon mein ek suKHan ko ghubar kar ke
ye ab khula hai ki us mein moti bhi DhunDte the
ki hum to bas aa gae hain dariya ko par kar ke
ba-qadr-e-KHwab-e-talab lahu hai na zindagi hai
ada karoge kahan se itna udhaar kar ke
