muntashir jab zehn mein lafzon ka shiraaza hua
muntashir jab zehn meñ lafzoñ kā shīrāza huā
mujh ko ik saada varaq ke dukh kā andāza huā
yuuñ to ik chubhtā huā ehsās thī us kī nazar
choT hī ubhrī na koī zaḳhm hī taaza huā
moḌnā chāhā thā maiñ ne sar-phire lamhoñ kā ruḳh
der meñ ujḌī huī shāḳhoñ ko andāza huā
apnī palkoñ par liye phirtā rahā nīñdoñ kā bojh
chand ḳhvāboñ kā adā mujh se na ḳhamyāza huā
nīchī dīvāroñ ke saa.e bhī baḌe hote nahīñ
aaj apne dostoñ se mil ke andāza huā
ḳhud se sharminda nazar ā.eñge saare aa.ine
phir kabhī yakjā agar chehroñ kā shīrāza huā
jab havā.eñ dī ga.ī 'ālam' mire iḳhlās ko
ek chehra thā jo apne aap be-ġhāza huā
muntashir jab zehn mein lafzon ka shiraaza hua
mujh ko ek sada waraq ke dukh ka andaza hua
yun to ek chubhta hua ehsas thi us ki nazar
choT hi ubhri na koi zaKHm hi taza hua
moDna chaha tha main ne sar-phire lamhon ka ruKH
der mein ujDi hui shaKHon ko andaza hua
apni palkon par liye phirta raha nindon ka bojh
chand KHwabon ka ada mujh se na KHamyaza hua
nichi diwaron ke sae bhi baDe hote nahin
aaj apne doston se mil ke andaza hua
KHud se sharminda nazar aaenge sare aaine
phir kabhi yakja agar chehron ka shiraaza hua
jab hawaen di gai 'alam' mere iKHlas ko
ek chehra tha jo apne aap be-ghaza hua
