misl-e-raqs-e-sharar nahin aati
misl-e-raqs-e-sharar nahīñ aatī
zindagī lauT kar nahīñ aatī
dil-dahī kā to koī sāmāñ kar
dilrubā.ī agar nahīñ aatī
hijr meñ maut DhūñDhne vaale
aisī shab kī sahar nahīñ aatī
dil ko de kar fareb-e-shauq-o-talab
ab tamannā nazar nahīñ aatī
ye tabī.at hai hazrat-e-nāseh
ye samajh soch kar nahīñ aatī
ālam-e-be-dilī se bhī yārab
dil kī koī ḳhabar nahīñ aatī
dard dil meñ agar na ho ham-dam
shā.irī umr-bhar nahīñ aatī
aadmī Thokareñ na khaa.e agar
zindagī raah par nahīñ aatī
raas aatī nahīñ agar tadbīr
maut kyuuñ chāragar nahīñ aatī
apnī hālat agar maiñ ḳhud na kahūñ
kyā unheñ bhī nazar nahīñ aatī
tum ko aate haiñ sab jafā-o-jaur
ik vafā hī magar nahīñ aatī
jis nazar se vo dekhte the kabhī
vo nazar ab nazar nahīñ aatī
vaa.e us zindagī kī mahrūmī
maut bhī umr-bhar nahīñ aatī
aah vo ārzū-e-dil 'sāhir'
tā-qayāmat jo bar nahīñ aatī
misl-e-raqs-e-sharar nahin aati
zindagi lauT kar nahin aati
dil-dahi ka to koi saman kar
dilrubai agar nahin aati
hijr mein maut DhunDhne wale
aisi shab ki sahar nahin aati
dil ko de kar fareb-e-shauq-o-talab
ab tamanna nazar nahin aati
ye tabiat hai hazrat-e-naseh
ye samajh soch kar nahin aati
aalam-e-be-dili se bhi yarab
dil ki koi KHabar nahin aati
dard dil mein agar na ho ham-dam
shairi umr-bhar nahin aati
aadmi Thokaren na khae agar
zindagi rah par nahin aati
ras aati nahin agar tadbir
maut kyun chaaragar nahin aati
apni haalat agar main KHud na kahun
kya unhen bhi nazar nahin aati
tum ko aate hain sab jafa-o-jaur
ek wafa hi magar nahin aati
jis nazar se wo dekhte the kabhi
wo nazar ab nazar nahin aati
wae us zindagi ki mahrumi
maut bhi umr-bhar nahin aati
aah wo aarzu-e-dil 'sahir'
ta-qayamat jo bar nahin aati
