sambhla nahin dil tujhse bichhaD kar kai din tak
sambhlā nahīñ dil tujh se bichhaḌ kar ka.ī din tak
maiñ ā.īna thā ban gayā patthar ka.ī din tak
kyā chiiz thī ham rakh ke kahīñ bhuul ga.e haiñ
vo chiiz ki yaad aa.ī na aksar ka.ī din tak
ai shāḳh-e-vafā phir vo parinda nahīñ lauTā
maiñ ghar meñ thā niklā nahīñ bāhar ka.ī din tak
vo bojh ki thī jis se mire sar kī bulandī
vo bojh girā uTh na sakā sar ka.ī din tak
ham ne bhī bahut us ko bhulāne kī duā kī
ham ne bhī bahut dekhā hai ro kar ka.ī din tak
kahte haiñ ki ā.īna bhī dekhā nahīñ us ne
sunte haiñ ki pahnā nahīñ zevar ka.ī din tak
ham taan ke so.e the ki kyuuñ aa.egā vo 'shāz'
detā rahā dastak vo barābar ka.ī din tak
sambhla nahin dil tujh se bichhaD kar kai din tak
main aaina tha ban gaya patthar kai din tak
kya chiz thi hum rakh ke kahin bhul gae hain
wo chiz ki yaad aai na aksar kai din tak
ai shaKH-e-wafa phir wo parinda nahin lauTa
main ghar mein tha nikla nahin bahar kai din tak
wo bojh ki thi jis se mere sar ki bulandi
wo bojh gira uTh na saka sar kai din tak
hum ne bhi bahut us ko bhulane ki dua ki
hum ne bhi bahut dekha hai ro kar kai din tak
kahte hain ki aaina bhi dekha nahin us ne
sunte hain ki pahna nahin zewar kai din tak
hum tan ke soe the ki kyun aaega wo 'shaz'
deta raha dastak wo barabar kai din tak
