tamashai to hain tamasha nahin hai
tamāshā.ī to haiñ tamāshā nahīñ hai
girā hai vo parda ki uThtā nahīñ hai
ye kis kī nazar de ga.ī rog yā-rab
sañbhāle se ab dil sañbhaltā nahīñ hai
taḌap jā.iyegā taḌap jā.iyegā
taḌapnā hamārā tamāshā nahīñ hai
bahut phāñs niklī bahut ḳhaar nikle
magar dil kā kāñTā nikaltā nahīñ hai
ye har shaḳhs kī lan-tarānī hai kaisī
ki har aañkh to chashm-e-mūsā nahīñ hai
salāmat mirī vahshat-e-dil salāmat
kahāñ merī vahshat kā charchā nahīñ hai
mirī jaan bhī hai ‘ināyat tumhārī
ye dil bhī tumhārā hai merā nahīñ hai
bulā.ī ga.ī un kī mahfil meñ duniyā
magar ek merā bulāvā nahīñ hai
zarā aap samjhā.iye dil ko nāseh
maiñ samjhā rahā huuñ samajhtā nahīñ hai
tumheñ dekhne ko tarastī haiñ āñkheñ
bahut din hue tum ko dekhā nahīñ hai
tamashai to hain tamasha nahin hai
gira hai wo parda ki uThta nahin hai
ye kis ki nazar de gai rog ya-rab
sanbhaale se ab dil sanbhalta nahin hai
taDap jaiyega taDap jaiyega
taDapna hamara tamasha nahin hai
bahut phans nikli bahut KHar nikle
magar dil ka kanTa nikalta nahin hai
ye har shaKHs ki lan-tarani hai kaisi
ki har aankh to chashm-e-musa nahin hai
salamat meri wahshat-e-dil salamat
kahan meri wahshat ka charcha nahin hai
meri jaan bhi hai ‘inayat tumhaari
ye dil bhi tumhaara hai mera nahin hai
bulai gai un ki mahfil mein duniya
magar ek mera bulawa nahin hai
zara aap samjhaiye dil ko naseh
main samjha raha hun samajhta nahin hai
tumhein dekhne ko tarasti hain aankhen
bahut din hue tum ko dekha nahin hai
