shauq raaton ko hai darpai ki tapan ho jaun
shauq rātoñ ko hai darpai ki tapāñ ho jā.ūñ
raqs-e-vahshat meñ uThūñ aur dhuāñ ho jā.ūñ
saath agar bād-e-sahar de to pas-e-mahmil-e-yār
ik bhaTaktī huī āvāz-e-fuġhāñ ho jā.ūñ
ab ye ehsās kā aalam hai ki shāyad kisī raat
nafas-e-sard se bhī sho.ala-ba-jāñ ho jā.ūñ
lā surāhī ki karūñ vahm-o-gumāñ ġharq-e-sharāb
is se pahle ki maiñ ḳhud vahm-o-gumāñ ho jā.ūñ
vo tamāshā huuñ hazāroñ mire ā.īne haiñ
ek ā.īne se mushkil hai ayaañ ho jā.ūñ
shauq meñ zabt hai malhūz magar kyā ma.alūm
kis ghaḌī be-ḳhabar-e-sūd-o-ziyāñ ho jā.ūñ
aisā andāz-e-ġhazal ho ki zamāne meñ 'zafar'
daur-e-ā.inda kī qadroñ kā nishāñ ho jā.ūñ
shauq raaton ko hai darpai ki tapan ho jaun
raqs-e-wahshat mein uThun aur dhuan ho jaun
sath agar baad-e-sahar de to pas-e-mahmil-e-yar
ek bhaTakti hui aawaz-e-fughan ho jaun
ab ye ehsas ka aalam hai ki shayad kisi raat
nafas-e-sard se bhi shoala-ba-jaan ho jaun
la surahi ki karun wahm-o-guman gharq-e-sharab
is se pahle ki main KHud wahm-o-guman ho jaun
wo tamasha hun hazaron mere aaine hain
ek aaine se mushkil hai ayan ho jaun
shauq mein zabt hai malhuz magar kya malum
kis ghaDi be-KHabar-e-sud-o-ziyan ho jaun
aisa andaz-e-ghazal ho ki zamane mein 'zafar'
daur-e-ainda ki qadron ka nishan ho jaun
