taKHta-e-mashq-e-sitam mujhko banane wala
taḳhta-e-mashq-e-sitam mujh ko banāne vaalā
thā vahī roz mire ḳhvāb meñ aane vaalā
muntashir kar diyā shīrāza-e-hastī jis ne
ḳhāna-e-dil ko mire thā vo sajāne vaalā
roz kartā rahā vo vāda-e-fardā mujh se
umr bhar ahd-e-vafā thā jo nibhāne vaalā
us ne mañjdhār meñ kashtī ko mirī chhoḌ diyā
thā jo tūfān-e-havādis se bachāne vaalā
pahle kartā thā pas-e-parda mirī beḳh-kunī
kāmyābī kā mirī jashn manāne vaalā
sābiqa jis se paḌā maslahat-andesh thā vo
''dost hotā nahīñ har haath milāne vālā''
maar Daale na ye tanhā.ī kā ehsās mujhe
muntazir jis kā thā ab vo nahīñ aane vaalā
jis se dil-jūī kī ummīd thī niklā vo raqīb
jis ko dekho hai vahī mujh ko satāne vaalā
aish-o-ishrat ke sadā ḳhvāb dikhātā thā use
ġhamza-o-nāz se 'barqī' ko lubhāne vaalā
taKHta-e-mashq-e-sitam mujh ko banane wala
tha wahi roz mere KHwab mein aane wala
muntashir kar diya shiraaza-e-hasti jis ne
KHana-e-dil ko mere tha wo sajaane wala
roz karta raha wo wada-e-farda mujh se
umr bhar ahd-e-wafa tha jo nibhane wala
us ne manjdhaar mein kashti ko meri chhoD diya
tha jo tufan-e-hawadis se bachane wala
pahle karta tha pas-e-parda meri beKH-kuni
kaamyabi ka meri jashn manane wala
sabiqa jis se paDa maslahat-andesh tha wo
dost hota nahin har hath milane wala
mar Dale na ye tanhai ka ehsas mujhe
muntazir jis ka tha ab wo nahin aane wala
jis se dil-jui ki ummid thi nikla wo raqib
jis ko dekho hai wahi mujh ko satane wala
aish-o-ishrat ke sada KHwab dikhata tha use
ghamza-o-naz se 'barqi' ko lubhane wala
