phaila ajab ghubar hai aaina-gah mein
phailā ajab ġhubār hai ā.īna-gāh meñ
mushkil hai ḳhud ko DhūñDhnā aks-e-tabāh meñ
jal-bujh chukā hai ḳhvāhish-e-nākām se vajūd
parchhā.īñ phir rahī hai makān-e-siyāh meñ
maiñ vo ajal-nasīb ki qātil huuñ apnā-āp
hotā huuñ roz qatl kisī qatl-gāh meñ
rakkhā gayā huuñ izzat-o-tauqīr kā asiir
bāñdhā gayā hai sar ko ġhurūr-e-kulāh meñ
halkān meñ nahīñ tirī ḳhātir sar-e-hujūm
sab mar rahe haiñ hasrat-e-yak-do-nigāh meñ
phaila ajab ghubar hai aaina-gah mein
mushkil hai KHud ko DhunDhna aks-e-tabah mein
jal-bujh chuka hai KHwahish-e-nakaam se wajud
parchhain phir rahi hai makan-e-siyah mein
main wo ajal-nasib ki qatil hun apna-ap
hota hun roz qatl kisi qatl-gah mein
rakkha gaya hun izzat-o-tauqir ka asir
bandha gaya hai sar ko ghurur-e-kulah mein
halkan mein nahin teri KHatir sar-e-hujum
sab mar rahe hain hasrat-e-yak-do-nigah mein
