qarib aa ke bhi ek shaKHs ho saka na mera
qarīb aa ke bhī ik shaḳhs ho sakā na mirā
yahī hai merī haqīqat yahī fasāna mirā
ye aur baat ki mujh ko na mil sakā ab tak
tire jahāñ meñ kahīñ hai sahī Thikāna mirā
charāġh kahne lagā phir havā ke jhoñke se
ye ehtimām to ai dost hai tirā na mirā
so ab tū bazm-e-tamannā meñ tā.irāna chahak!
tire dimāġh pe halkā sā bojh thā na mirā?
abhī to guuñj rahe haiñ badan meñ sho.ale se
abhī to ḳhaam hai andāz-e-āshiqāna mirā
kahāñ majāl ki marzī se phaḌphaḌā bhī sukūñ
qafas-misāl hai 'aslam' ye āshiyāna mirā
qarib aa ke bhi ek shaKHs ho saka na mera
yahi hai meri haqiqat yahi fasana mera
ye aur baat ki mujh ko na mil saka ab tak
tere jahan mein kahin hai sahi Thikana mera
charagh kahne laga phir hawa ke jhonke se
ye ehtimam to ai dost hai tera na mera
so ab tu bazm-e-tamanna mein tairana chahak!
tere dimagh pe halka sa bojh tha na mira?
abhi to gunj rahe hain badan mein shoale se
abhi to KHam hai andaz-e-ashiqana mera
kahan majal ki marzi se phaDphaDa bhi sukun
qafas-misal hai 'aslam' ye aashiyana mera
