thi kahan jurat kisi mein han magar usne kiya
thī kahāñ jur.at kisī meñ haañ magar us ne kiyā
dil ke is ḳhālī makāñ ko aaj ghar us ne kiyā
ik zamāna thā ki duniyā thī mire qadmoñ tale
phir zamāne bhar se mujh ko be-ḳhabar us ne kiyā
maiñ ne jis kī raah meñ dil ko jalā kar rakh diyā
mujh ko sīdhe rāste se dar-ba-dar us ne kiyā
mast nazroñ ke sharābī ko bhalā kyā chāhiye
ik jhalak ke vāste kitnā safar us ne kiyā
phuul ḳhushbū rañg titlī isti.āre haiñ magar
mujh ko ye sab naam de kar mo'atabar us ne kiyā
aaj us ke dil meñ merī yaad phir raushan huī
aaj phir raushan diyā dīvār par us ne kiyā
haath meñ vo haath merā thaam kar chaltā rahā
zindagī ke fāsloñ ko muḳhtasar us ne kiyā
phuul kaliyāñ jis ke collar meñ sajā kar aa ga.ī
zindagī kī ketiyoñ ko be-samar us ne kiyā
jis ke hoñToñ par tabassum thā 'tabassum' ke liye
vo tabassum ġhair ke phir naam par us ne kiyā
thi kahan jurat kisi mein han magar us ne kiya
dil ke is KHali makan ko aaj ghar us ne kiya
ek zamana tha ki duniya thi mere qadmon tale
phir zamane bhar se mujh ko be-KHabar us ne kiya
main ne jis ki rah mein dil ko jala kar rakh diya
mujh ko sidhe raste se dar-ba-dar us ne kiya
mast nazron ke sharabi ko bhala kya chahiye
ek jhalak ke waste kitna safar us ne kiya
phul KHushbu rang titli istiare hain magar
mujh ko ye sab nam de kar mo'atabar us ne kiya
aaj us ke dil mein meri yaad phir raushan hui
aaj phir raushan diya diwar par us ne kiya
hath mein wo hath mera tham kar chalta raha
zindagi ke faslon ko muKHtasar us ne kiya
phul kaliyan jis ke collar mein saja kar aa gai
zindagi ki ketiyon ko be-samar us ne kiya
jis ke honTon par tabassum tha 'tabassum' ke liye
wo tabassum ghair ke phir nam par us ne kiya
