kisi nai tarha ki rawani mein ja raha tha
kisī na.ī tarha kī ravānī meñ jā rahā thā
charāġh thā koī aur paanī meñ jā rahā thā
rukā huā thā vo qāfila to magar abhī tak
ġhubār apnī hī be-karānī meñ jā rahā thā
mujhe ḳhabar thī vo kyā karegā sulūk mujh se
so maiñ ba-zāhir to ḳhush-gumānī meñ jā rahā thā
maiñ tañgi-e-dil se ḳhush nahīñ thā isī sabab se
makāñ se bāhar kī lā-makānī meñ jā rahā thā
tum apnī mastī meñ aan Takrā.e mujh se yak-dam
idhar se maiñ bhī to be-dhyānī meñ jā rahā thā
tirī rukāvaT se bhī mire paañv kaise rukte
ki maiñ kisī aur sar-girānī meñ jā rahā thā
mire liye ajnabī thā sailāb-e-ḳhvāb meñ vo
jo lafz chup-chāp mauj-e-ma.anī meñ jā rahā thā
suḳhan se bīmār kyuuñ na hotā maiñ āḳhir apne
ki lutf saarā to ḳhush-bayānī meñ jā rahā thā
'zafar' mire ḳhvāb vaqt-e-āḳhir bhī tāza-dam the
ye lag rahā thā ki maiñ javānī meñ jā rahā thā
kisi nai tarha ki rawani mein ja raha tha
charagh tha koi aur pani mein ja raha tha
ruka hua tha wo qafila to magar abhi tak
ghubar apni hi be-karani mein ja raha tha
mujhe KHabar thi wo kya karega suluk mujh se
so main ba-zahir to KHush-gumani mein ja raha tha
main tangi-e-dil se KHush nahin tha isi sabab se
makan se bahar ki la-makani mein ja raha tha
tum apni masti mein aan Takrae mujh se yak-dam
idhar se main bhi to be-dhyani mein ja raha tha
teri rukawaT se bhi mere panw kaise rukte
ki main kisi aur sar-girani mein ja raha tha
mere liye ajnabi tha sailab-e-KHwab mein wo
jo lafz chup-chap mauj-e-mani mein ja raha tha
suKHan se bimar kyun na hota main aaKHir apne
ki lutf sara to KHush-bayani mein ja raha tha
'zafar' mere KHwab waqt-e-aKHir bhi taza-dam the
ye lag raha tha ki main jawani mein ja raha tha
