KHwab sahra teri tabir nikal aai hai
ḳhvāb sahrā tirī ta.abīr nikal aa.ī hai
koī vahshat hai ki jāgīr nikal aa.ī hai
shāḳh-e-mizhgāñ ke parinde haiñ ye aañsū goyā
āb-o-dāna liye taqdīr nikal aa.ī hai
ḳhuuñ ubaltā hai nikaltā hai dhuāñ āñkhoñ se
dekh paanī kī ye tahrīr nikal aa.ī hai
shahr is tarah bayābāñ meñ girā hai jaise
vaqt ke paañv se zanjīr nikal aa.ī hai
zindagī tujh ko magar sharm nahīñ aatī kyā
kaisī kaisī tirī tasvīr nikal aa.ī hai
raat hai jism hai bistar hai falak pahlū meñ
chāñd niklā hai ki shamshīr nikal aa.ī hai
tez lahroñ meñ salāmat nahīñ koī 'ḳhurshīd'
kis tarah hasrat-e-tāmīr nikal aa.ī hai
KHwab sahra teri tabir nikal aai hai
koi wahshat hai ki jagir nikal aai hai
shaKH-e-mizhgan ke parinde hain ye aansu goya
aab-o-dana liye taqdir nikal aai hai
KHun ubalta hai nikalta hai dhuan aankhon se
dekh pani ki ye tahrir nikal aai hai
shahr is tarah bayaban mein gira hai jaise
waqt ke panw se zanjir nikal aai hai
zindagi tujh ko magar sharm nahin aati kya
kaisi kaisi teri taswir nikal aai hai
raat hai jism hai bistar hai falak pahlu mein
chand nikla hai ki shamshir nikal aai hai
tez lahron mein salamat nahin koi 'KHurshid'
kis tarah hasrat-e-tamir nikal aai hai
