kahin shuur mein sadiyon ka KHauf zinda tha
kahīñ shu.ūr meñ sadiyoñ kā ḳhauf zinda thā
maiñ shāḳh-e-asr pe baiThā huā parinda thā
badan meñ dil thā muallaq ḳhalā meñ nazreñ thiiñ
magar kahīñ kahīñ siine meñ dard zinda thā
phir ek raat mujhī par jhapaT paḌā mirā zabt
jise maiñ paal rahā thā koī darinda thā
ḳhushī ne haath baḌhāyā thā merī jānib bhī
magar vahāñ jahāñ har shaḳhs ġham-kuninda thā
nabard-e-ishq meñ kyā kyā jigar kiyā 'tauqīr'
havā kā lams bhī jab intiqām-e-hiñda thā
kahin shuur mein sadiyon ka KHauf zinda tha
main shaKH-e-asr pe baiTha hua parinda tha
badan mein dil tha muallaq KHala mein nazren thin
magar kahin kahin sine mein dard zinda tha
phir ek raat mujhi par jhapaT paDa mera zabt
jise main pal raha tha koi darinda tha
KHushi ne hath baDhaya tha meri jaanib bhi
magar wahan jahan har shaKHs gham-kuninda tha
nabard-e-ishq mein kya kya jigar kiya 'tauqir'
hawa ka lams bhi jab intiqam-e-hinda tha
