khuli wo zulf to pahli hasin raat hui
khulī vo zulf to pahlī hasīn raat huī
uThī vo aañkh to taḳhlīq-e-kā.enāt huī
ḳhudā ne gaḌ.h to diyā ālam-e-vajūd magar
sajāvaToñ kī binā auratoñ kī zaat huī
gile bahut the magar jab nazar nazar se milī!
na mujh se baat huī aur na un se baat huī
dil-e-tabāh ko kuchh aur kar ga.ī zaḳhmī!
vo ik nigāh jo labrez-e-iltifāt huī
hayāt o maut kī ġhārat-garī kā haal na pūchh
jo maut na ban sakī vo 'adam' hayāt huī
khuli wo zulf to pahli hasin raat hui
uThi wo aankh to taKHliq-e-kaenat hui
KHuda ne gaDh to diya aalam-e-wajud magar
sajawaTon ki bina auraton ki zat hui
gile bahut the magar jab nazar nazar se mili!
na mujh se baat hui aur na un se baat hui
dil-e-tabah ko kuchh aur kar gai zaKHmi!
wo ek nigah jo labrez-e-iltifat hui
hayat o maut ki ghaarat-gari ka haal na puchh
jo maut na ban saki wo 'adam' hayat hui
