kahin qiyam na tha qafila safar mein raha
kahīñ qiyām na thā qāfila safar meñ rahā
ġhubār silsila-dar-silsila nazar meñ rahā
uḌaa.ī ḳhāk-e-talab garmi-e-nafas ne mirī
rahā na maiñ to bagūla sā rah-guzar meñ rahā
jab us ke dar se maiñ palTā to koī raah na thī
'ajab tilism-e-mulāqāt ke asar meñ rahā
mirī shikast ḳhalāoñ meñ āshkār huī
vajūd-e-sang se TuuTā to maiñ sharar meñ rahā
huā vo sho'la-e-hastī kā raqs dariyā meñ
ki us kā naqsh-e-gumāñ muddatoñ bhañvar meñ rahā
kahin qiyam na tha qafila safar mein raha
ghubar silsila-dar-silsila nazar mein raha
uDai KHak-e-talab garmi-e-nafas ne meri
raha na main to bagula sa rah-guzar mein raha
jab us ke dar se main palTa to koi rah na thi
'ajab tilism-e-mulaqat ke asar mein raha
meri shikast KHalaon mein aashkar hui
wajud-e-sang se TuTa to main sharar mein raha
hua wo sho'la-e-hasti ka raqs dariya mein
ki us ka naqsh-e-guman muddaton bhanwar mein raha
