KHwab ke phulon ki tabiren kahani ho gain
ḳhvāb ke phūloñ kī ta.abīreñ kahānī ho ga.iiñ
ḳhuun ThanDā paḌ gayā āñkheñ purānī ho ga.iiñ
jis kā chehra thā chamakte mausamoñ kī aarzū
us kī tasvīreñ bhī aurāq-e-ḳhizānī ho ga.iiñ
dil bhar aayā kāġhaz-e-ḳhālī kī sūrat dekh kar
jin ko likhnā thā vo sab bāteñ zabānī ho ga.iiñ
jo muqaddar thā use to roknā bas meñ na thā

rah gayā 'mushtāq' dil meñ rañg-e-yād-e-raftagāñ
phuul mahñge ho ga.e qabreñ purānī ho ga.iiñ
KHwab ke phulon ki tabiren kahani ho gain
KHun ThanDa paD gaya aankhen purani ho gain
jis ka chehra tha chamakte mausamon ki aarzu
us ki taswiren bhi auraq-e-KHizani ho gain
dil bhar aaya kaghaz-e-KHali ki surat dekh kar
jin ko likhna tha wo sab baaten zabani ho gain
jo muqaddar tha use to rokna bas mein na tha
un ka kya karte jo baaten na-gahani ho gain
rah gaya 'mushtaq' dil mein rang-e-yaad-e-raftagan
phul mahnge ho gae qabren purani ho gain
