main us se dur raha uski dastaras mein raha
maiñ us se duur rahā us kī dastaras meñ rahā
vo ek sho.ale kī sūrat mire nafas meñ rahā
nazar asiir isī chashm-e-mai-fashāñ kī rahī
mirā badan bhī mirī ruuh ke qafas meñ rahā
chaman se TuuT gayā barg-e-zard kā rishta
na aab o gil meñ samāyā na ḳhār-o-ḳhas meñ rahā
tamām umr kī be-tābiyoñ kā hāsil thā
vo ek lamha jo sadiyoñ ke pesh-o-pas meñ rahā
vo ek shā.er-e-āshufta-sar ki mujh meñ thā
havā kā saath na de kar havā ke bas meñ rahā
kisī ḳhayāl ke nashshe meñ din guzarte rahe
maiñ apnī umr ke unnīsveñ baras meñ rahā
main us se dur raha us ki dastaras mein raha
wo ek shoale ki surat mere nafas mein raha
nazar asir isi chashm-e-mai-fashan ki rahi
mera badan bhi meri ruh ke qafas mein raha
chaman se TuT gaya barg-e-zard ka rishta
na aab o gil mein samaya na KHar-o-KHas mein raha
tamam umr ki be-tabiyon ka hasil tha
wo ek lamha jo sadiyon ke pesh-o-pas mein raha
wo ek shaer-e-ashufta-sar ki mujh mein tha
hawa ka sath na de kar hawa ke bas mein raha
kisi KHayal ke nashshe mein din guzarte rahe
main apni umr ke unniswen baras mein raha
