mujh tahi-jaan se tujhe inkar pahle to na tha
mujh tahī-jāñ se tujhe inkār pahle to na thā
terā aur mere liye dīvār pahle to na thā
husn ne sauñpī hai ye kaisī nigūñ-sārī mujhe
maiñ kisī kā ā.ina-bardār pahle to na thā
is tarah to pā-ba-jaulāñ ham na phirte the kabhī
in galī-kūchoñ meñ ye bāzār pahle to na thā
ab kahāñ se aa.ī us kāfir ke dil meñ raushnī
aa.ina halqa-ba-gosh-e-yār pahle to na thā
'tābish' ik daryūza-gar ko baaz rakhne ke liye
koī darvāza pas-e-dīvār pahle to na thā
mujh tahi-jaan se tujhe inkar pahle to na tha
tera aur mere liye diwar pahle to na tha
husn ne saunpi hai ye kaisi nigun-sari mujhe
main kisi ka aaina-bardar pahle to na tha
is tarah to pa-ba-jaulan hum na phirte the kabhi
in gali-kuchon mein ye bazar pahle to na tha
ab kahan se aai us kafir ke dil mein raushni
aaina halqa-ba-gosh-e-yar pahle to na tha
'tabish' ek daryuza-gar ko baz rakhne ke liye
koi darwaza pas-e-diwar pahle to na tha
