uljhe uljhe dhāge dhāge se ḳhayāloñ kī tarah
ho gayā huuñ in dinoñ tere savāloñ kī tarah
apne dil kī vus.atoñ meñ har taraf bhaTkā phirā
be-karāñ mub.ham sarāboñ meñ ġhazāloñ kī tarah
ye mirā ehsās hai yā jabr-e-mausam kā asar
ab kī rut mahke nahīñ gul pichhle sāloñ kī tarah
asr-e-hāzir kī jabīñ par talḳhiyāñ kanda huiiñ
tan ga.e hālāt apne gird jāloñ kī tarah
dasht-e-ġham meñ āñdhiyoñ ke daar sahne ke liye
ḳhushk patte uTh rahe haiñ aaj Dhāloñ kī tarah
zulmat-e-maġhrib ko 'ḳhātir' koī ye paiġhām de
ham bhī ab ubhreñge mashriq se ujāloñ kī tarah
uljhe uljhe dhage dhage se KHayalon ki tarah
ho gaya hun in dinon tere sawalon ki tarah
apne dil ki wusaton mein har taraf bhaTka phira
be-karan mubham sarabon mein ghazalon ki tarah
ye mera ehsas hai ya jabr-e-mausam ka asar
ab ki rut mahke nahin gul pichhle salon ki tarah
asr-e-hazir ki jabin par talKHiyan kanda huin
tan gae haalat apne gird jalon ki tarah
dasht-e-gham mein aandhiyon ke dar sahne ke liye
KHushk patte uTh rahe hain aaj Dhaalon ki tarah
zulmat-e-maghrib ko 'KHatir' koi ye paigham de
hum bhi ab ubhrenge mashriq se ujalon ki tarah
