paDa hun zer-e-qadam KHak-e-rahguzar ban kar

paḌā huuñ zer-e-qadam ḳhāk-e-rahguzar ban kar

jhukā huuñ maiñ hama-tan us galī meñ sar ban kar

nikal gayā mirī āñkhoñ se misl-e-ḳhvā-o-ḳhayāl

guzar gayā dil-e-raushan se vo nazar ban kar

kitāb o ḳhat hī ke dhoke meñ rah ga.e aġhyār

vo yaar aap hī aayā payām-bar ban kar

kisī kī teġh-e-nigah ne miTā diye dhabbe

hamāre dāġh-e-jigar kaT ga.e sipar ban kar

'mazāq' sāqi-e-kausar mujhe sambhāleñge

nashe meñ bigḌī tabī.at mirī agar ban kar

paDa hun zer-e-qadam KHak-e-rahguzar ban kar

jhuka hun main hama-tan us gali mein sar ban kar

nikal gaya meri aankhon se misl-e-KHwa-o-KHayal

guzar gaya dil-e-raushan se wo nazar ban kar

kitab o KHat hi ke dhoke mein rah gae aghyar

wo yar aap hi aaya payam-bar ban kar

kisi ki tegh-e-nigah ne miTa diye dhabbe

hamare dagh-e-jigar kaT gae sipar ban kar

'mazaq' saqi-e-kausar mujhe sambhaalenge

nashe mein bigDi tabiat meri agar ban kar
