teri taKHliq tera rang hawala tha mera
terī taḳhlīq tirā rañg havāla thā mirā
kaun kahtā hai ki andāz nirālā thā mirā
maiñ jahāñ par thā vahīñ tū thā mire ā.īna-gar
terī tasvīroñ se bharpūr risāla thā mirā
chāhtā thā maiñ duā māñgtā par kyā kartā
mere hāthoñ meñ to labrez piyāla thā mirā
mujhe pahle ka.ī sadiyoñ kī sazā kāTnā thī
manzil-e-sub.h se kuchh duur ujālā thā mirā
maiñ use bhuul gayā taaki use yaad na aa.uuñ
kitnā mahbūb mujhe bhūlne vaalā thā mirā
huuñ tahī-dast magar minnat-e-kashkol nahīñ
mohr-e-taskīn mujhe haath kā chhālā thā mirā
zahr piite hue ḳhāmosh hī rahnā thā mujhe
shāḳh-e-taslīm se gul-posh piyāla thā mirā
dūsrī zindagī dene kī zarūrat hī na thī
har na.ī shakl kī sūrat meñ izāla thā mirā
ye jo duniyā meñ sar-e-mauj-e-havā likkhā hai
mere yāroñ ne kabhī naam uchhālā thā mirā
teri taKHliq tera rang hawala tha mera
kaun kahta hai ki andaz nirala tha mera
main jahan par tha wahin tu tha mere aaina-gar
teri taswiron se bharpur risala tha mera
chahta tha main dua mangta par kya karta
mere hathon mein to labrez piyala tha mera
mujhe pahle kai sadiyon ki saza kaTna thi
manzil-e-subh se kuchh dur ujala tha mera
main use bhul gaya taki use yaad na aaun
kitna mahbub mujhe bhulne wala tha mera
hun tahi-dast magar minnat-e-kashkol nahin
mohr-e-taskin mujhe hath ka chhaala tha mera
zahr pite hue KHamosh hi rahna tha mujhe
shaKH-e-taslim se gul-posh piyala tha mera
dusri zindagi dene ki zarurat hi na thi
har nai shakl ki surat mein izala tha mera
ye jo duniya mein sar-e-mauj-e-hawa likkha hai
mere yaron ne kabhi nam uchhaala tha mera
