    thā merī ḳhvāhishoñ meñ jo kal pech-o-tāb

    lagtā hai us zikr bhī ab to azaab

    bikhrā huā thā chāroñ taraf maiñ varaq-varaq

    us ne mujhe sameT liyā hai kitāb

    ab tak basā huā hai koī lā-shu.ūr meñ

    ab tak mahak rahā hai pasīna gulāb

    phir is ke baa'd hogī kahānī ibtidā

    ye intishār to hai faqat intisāb

    kyoñ vaz-e-ehtiyāt meñ kaaTī tamām umr

    pūchhe jo zindagī to rahūñ lā-javāb

    dekhūñ to duur tak na sitāre na chāñdnī

    sochūñ to apnā zaḳhm lage āftāb

    hijrat zaḳhm ab bhī khaTaktā hai paañv meñ

    ab bhī 'ziyā' hai dahr meñ ḳhāna-ḳharāb

    tha meri KHwahishon mein jo kal pech-o-tab sa

    lagta hai us ka zikr bhi ab to azab sa

    bikhra hua tha chaaron taraf main waraq-waraq

    us ne mujhe sameT liya hai kitab sa

    ab tak basa hua hai koi la-shuur mein

    ab tak mahak raha hai pasina gulab sa

    phir is ke ba'd hogi kahani ki ibtida

    ye intishaar to hai faqat intisab sa

    kyon waz-e-ehtiyat mein kaTi tamam umr

    puchhe jo zindagi to rahun la-jawab sa

    dekhun to dur tak na sitare na chandni

    sochun to apna zaKHm lage aaftab sa

    hijrat ka zaKHm ab bhi khaTakta hai panw mein

    ab bhi 'ziya' hai dahr mein KHana-KHarab sa
