muddat ke ba.ad muñh se lagī hai jo chhūT kar
to ye bhī mai pe girtī hai kyā TuuT TuuT kar
mehñdī thā merā ḳhuun ki hotā jo rā.egāñ
ik shab ke ba.ad haath se qātil ke chhūT kar
pahlā hī din thā ham ko kiye tark-e-mai-kashī
kyā kyā paḌā hai raat ko meñh TuuT TuuT kar
sabr o qarār le ke diyā dāġh-e-ārzū
ābād tum ne dil ko kiyā mujh ko luuT kar
hairat hai mere aḳhtar-e-baḳht-e-siyāh ko
kyuuñ kar gahan se chāñd nikaltā hai chhūT kar
allāh-re āñsuoñ kā khaTaknā firāq meñ
āñkhoñ meñ bhar gayā koī almās kuuT kar
Tapke nahīñ qalam ke faqat ashk naama par
vo kuchh likhā ki roī siyāhī bhī phuuT kar
kar band-o-bast abhī se na gulshan meñ bāġhbāñ
vo din to ho ki murġh-e-qafas aa.eñ chhūT kar
sad-haif sar-guzisht jo apnī kahī 'jalāl'
tū is ko dāstān samajh sach ko jhuuT kar
muddat ke baad munh se lagi hai jo chhuT kar
to ye bhi mai pe girti hai kya TuT TuT kar
mehndi tha mera KHun ki hota jo raegan
ek shab ke baad hath se qatil ke chhuT kar
pahla hi din tha hum ko kiye tark-e-mai-kashi
kya kya paDa hai raat ko meinh TuT TuT kar
sabr o qarar le ke diya dagh-e-arzu
aabaad tum ne dil ko kiya mujh ko luT kar
hairat hai mere aKHtar-e-baKHt-e-siyah ko
kyun kar gahan se chand nikalta hai chhuT kar
allah-re aansuon ka khaTakna firaq mein
aankhon mein bhar gaya koi almas kuT kar
Tapke nahin qalam ke faqat ashk nama par
wo kuchh likha ki roi siyahi bhi phuT kar
kar band-o-bast abhi se na gulshan mein baghban
wo din to ho ki murgh-e-qafas aaen chhuT kar
sad-haif sar-guzisht jo apni kahi 'jalal'
tu is ko dastan samajh sach ko jhuT kar
