uski baaten kya karte ho wo lafzon ka bani tha
us kī bāteñ kyā karte ho vo lafzoñ kā baanī thā
us ke kitne lahje the aur har lahja lā-fānī thā
jab maiñ ghar se niklā thā tab ḳhushk zabāñ par kāñTe the
aur jab ghar meñ vāpas aayā gardan gardan paanī thā
jab kuchh māsūmoñ kī jaañ thī haivānoñ ke narġhe meñ
tab har sūrat ho saktī thī har ḳhatra imkānī thā
nām-e-ḳhudā ab bhī jaarī hai sab kī zabānoñ par lekin
jis jazbe ne paar lagāyā vo jazba shaitānī thā
aaj kī mahfil meñ ai 'shahpar' nukta-chīnī thī mujh par
terā to kuchh zikr nahīñ thā tū kyuuñ paanī paanī thā
us ki baaten kya karte ho wo lafzon ka bani tha
us ke kitne lahje the aur har lahja la-fani tha
jab main ghar se nikla tha tab KHushk zaban par kanTe the
aur jab ghar mein wapas aaya gardan gardan pani tha
jab kuchh masumon ki jaan thi haiwanon ke narghe mein
tab har surat ho sakti thi har KHatra imkani tha
nam-e-KHuda ab bhi jari hai sab ki zabanon par lekin
jis jazbe ne par lagaya wo jazba shaitani tha
aaj ki mahfil mein ai 'shahpar' nukta-chini thi mujh par
tera to kuchh zikr nahin tha tu kyun pani pani tha
