nahin kuchh faiz hasil tha zamane se KHafa ho kar
nahīñ kuchh faiz hāsil thā zamāne se ḳhafā ho kar
maiñ dīvāna banā huuñ ḳhud hī us but par fanā ho kar
merī duniyā meñ ashk-o-ḳhūñ kā tāñtā rahā har-dam
kabhī terī vafāoñ meñ kabhī tum se judā ho kar
tasavvur meñ bhī pindār-e-vafā kā lutf hāsil thā
tumhārī zulf-e-qātil-e-pesha ke ḳham meñ fanā ho kar
gañvā.ī ashkoñ ne tāsīr jo ḳhūn-e-jigar kī thī
girā jab āb-e-gauhar bhī libās-e-tan pe vā ho kar
yahī duniyā kī tañg-bīnī se miltā hai vafāoñ ko
judā ho jaate haiñ āshiq sanam se bevafā ho kar
vahī be-sūd sī bandish zamāne ke usūloñ kī
vafā ko qaid kar detī haiñ zanjīreñ sazā ho kar
maiñ kin majbūriyoñ kā ab karūñ mātam batā 'bāliġh'
jo paayā be-ḳhudī meñ vo gañvāyā āshnā ho kar
nahin kuchh faiz hasil tha zamane se KHafa ho kar
main diwana bana hun KHud hi us but par fana ho kar
meri duniya mein ashk-o-KHun ka tanta raha har-dam
kabhi teri wafaon mein kabhi tum se juda ho kar
tasawwur mein bhi pindar-e-wafa ka lutf hasil tha
tumhaari zulf-e-qatil-e-pesha ke KHam mein fana ho kar
ganwai ashkon ne tasir jo KHun-e-jigar ki thi
gira jab aab-e-gauhar bhi libas-e-tan pe wa ho kar
yahi duniya ki tang-bini se milta hai wafaon ko
juda ho jate hain aashiq sanam se bewafa ho kar
wahi be-sud si bandish zamane ke usulon ki
wafa ko qaid kar deti hain zanjiren saza ho kar
main kin majburiyon ka ab karun matam bata 'baaligh'
jo paya be-KHudi mein wo ganwaya aashna ho kar
