main jis ko rah dikhaun wahi haTae mujhe
maiñ jis ko raah dikhā.ūñ vahī haTā.e mujhe
maiñ naqsh-e-pā huuñ koī ḳhaak se uThā.e mujhe
mahak uThegī fazā mere tan kī ḳhushbū se
maiñ uud huuñ kabhī aa kar koī jalā.e mujhe
charāġh huuñ to faqat taaq kyuuñ muqaddar ho
koī zamāne ke dariyā meñ bhī bahā.e mujhe
maiñ musht-e-ḳhāk huuñ sahrā mirī tamannā hai
havā-e-tez kisī taur se uḌaa.e mujhe
agar mirā hai to utre kabhī mire ghar meñ
vo chāñd ban ke na yuuñ duur se lubhā.e mujhe
vo aa.ine kī tarah mere sāmne aa.e
mujhe nahīñ to mirā aks hī dikhā.e mujhe
umañDtī yādoñ ke āshob se meñ vāqif huuñ
ḳhudā kare kisī sūrat vo bhuul jaa.e mujhe
vafā nigāh kī tālib hai imtihāñ kī nahīñ
vo merī ruuh meñ jhāñke na āzmā.e mujhe
main jis ko rah dikhaun wahi haTae mujhe
main naqsh-e-pa hun koi KHak se uThae mujhe
mahak uThegi faza mere tan ki KHushbu se
main ud hun kabhi aa kar koi jalae mujhe
charagh hun to faqat taq kyun muqaddar ho
koi zamane ke dariya mein bhi bahae mujhe
main musht-e-KHak hun sahra meri tamanna hai
hawa-e-tez kisi taur se uDae mujhe
agar mera hai to utre kabhi mere ghar mein
wo chand ban ke na yun dur se lubhae mujhe
wo aaine ki tarah mere samne aae
mujhe nahin to mera aks hi dikhae mujhe
umanDti yaadon ke aashob se mein waqif hun
KHuda kare kisi surat wo bhul jae mujhe
wafa nigah ki talib hai imtihan ki nahin
wo meri ruh mein jhanke na aazmae mujhe
