umr-e-pas-manda kuchh dalil si hai
umr-e-pas-māñda kuchh dalīl sī hai
zindagānī bhī ab qalīl sī hai
girya kartā huuñ kyā maiñ nazr-e-husain
āñsuoñ kī jo ik sabīl sī hai
chal dilā vo patañg uḌātā hai
abhī aane meñ us ke Dhiil sī hai
log karte haiñ vasf-e-nūr-jahāñ
maiñ ne dekhā vo zan to fiil sī hai
kis ke mizhgāñ ne ye kiyā jaadū
mere dil meñ gaḌī jo kiil sī hai
tū gar aave shikār-e-māhī ko
chashm-e-tar āñsuoñ se jhiil sī hai
us ko sohbat kā gar dimāġh nahīñ
tab.a apnī bhī kuchh aliil sī hai
dil mirā misr-e-husn hai tab to
nadī āñkhoñ kī rūd-e-nīl sī hai
hai jo ye 'mus.hafī' kī ham-ḳhvāba
hai to achchhī pa kuchh asiil sī hai
umr-e-pas-manda kuchh dalil si hai
zindagani bhi ab qalil si hai
girya karta hun kya main nazr-e-husain
aansuon ki jo ek sabil si hai
chal dila wo patang uData hai
abhi aane mein us ke Dhil si hai
log karte hain wasf-e-nur-jahan
main ne dekha wo zan to fil si hai
kis ke mizhgan ne ye kiya jadu
mere dil mein gaDi jo kil si hai
tu gar aawe shikar-e-mahi ko
chashm-e-tar aansuon se jhil si hai
us ko sohbat ka gar dimagh nahin
taba apni bhi kuchh alil si hai
dil mera misr-e-husn hai tab to
nadi aankhon ki rud-e-nil si hai
hai jo ye 'mushafi' ki ham-KHwaba
hai to achchhi pa kuchh asil si hai
