na ham-nawa mere zauq-e-KHiram ka nikla

na ham-navā mire zauq-e-ḳhirām kā niklā

ye rāsta bhī usī narm-gām kā niklā

na.e guloñ kī sadā-e-shaguft tez huī

havā ke lams se rishta kalām kā niklā

musavvirī na sahī kaam aa.ī be-hunarī

koī bahāna to un se salām kā niklā

talāsh-e-rizq meñ nikle the mahr-e-sub.h liye

aqab se pahlā sitāra bhī shaam kā niklā

yahāñ bhī dhuup chalī aa.ī be-ḳhayālī kī

ye sā.ebān-e-tasavvur na kaam kā niklā

musāhiboñ kī tarah har qadam pe ḳhaar mile

mirā safar to baḌe ehtimām kā niklā

vahī shajar vahī patte vahī havā vahī aag

kalām-e-nau bhī mirā rañg-e-ām kā niklā

na ham-nawa mere zauq-e-KHiram ka nikla

ye rasta bhi usi narm-gam ka nikla

nae gulon ki sada-e-shaguft tez hui

hawa ke lams se rishta kalam ka nikla

musawwiri na sahi kaam aai be-hunari

koi bahana to un se salam ka nikla

talash-e-rizq mein nikle the mahr-e-subh liye

aqab se pahla sitara bhi sham ka nikla

yahan bhi dhup chali aai be-KHayali ki

ye saeban-e-tasawwur na kaam ka nikla

musahibon ki tarah har qadam pe KHar mile

mera safar to baDe ehtimam ka nikla

wahi shajar wahi patte wahi hawa wahi aag

kalam-e-nau bhi mera rang-e-am ka nikla
