main sharmsar hun apne zamir ke aage
maiñ sharmsār huuñ apne zamīr ke aage
ki haath ḳhālī thā merā faqīr ke aage
mirā yaqīn thā hadd-e-gumān ke andar
kabhī bhī sochā nahīñ hai lakīr ke aage
koī to jazba thā mahjūr ke ḳhayāloñ meñ
pighal rahī thiiñ salāsil asiir ke aage
charāġh-e-saharī thā lekin ajiib raushan thā
chamak rahā thā vo māh-e-munīr ke aage
maiñ kaise us ke likhe par yaqīn kar letā
qalam bhī girvī thā jis kā amiir ke aage
har ek shaḳhs thā kamzor-o-nātavāñ 'sāhil'
badan-darīda thā har ik sharīr ke aage
main sharmsar hun apne zamir ke aage
ki hath KHali tha mera faqir ke aage
mera yaqin tha hadd-e-guman ke andar
kabhi bhi socha nahin hai lakir ke aage
koi to jazba tha mahjur ke KHayalon mein
pighal rahi thin salasil asir ke aage
charagh-e-sahari tha lekin ajib raushan tha
chamak raha tha wo mah-e-munir ke aage
main kaise us ke likhe par yaqin kar leta
qalam bhi girwi tha jis ka amir ke aage
har ek shaKHs tha kamzor-o-natawan 'sahil'
badan-darida tha har ek sharir ke aage
