uski har baat ne jadu sa kiya tha pahle
us kī har baat ne jaadū sā kiyā thā pahle
kitnā dilchasp kahānī kā ḳhudā thā pahle
ḳhvāb-lamha tirī ḳhushbū meñ basā thā pahle
be-ḳhabar niiñd meñ ik phuul khilā thā pahle
koī tāsīr thī jo ġham ko bhulā detī thī
tere andar koī fankār chhupā thā pahle
ye badan ab tujhe be-rūh khañDar lagtā hai
is havelī meñ ik insān jiyā thā pahle
vaqt par maut kī lazzat bhī nahīñ de paayā
mujh ko vo aadmī hiirā hī lagā thā pahle
ik sweater ne baḌhā dī thī javānī merī
tum ne mere liye ik ḳhvāb bunā thā pahle
maiñ jo kahtā thā vahī baat huā kartī thī
mere ghar meñ koī jaadū kā diyā thā pahle
kaise aatā hai dabe paañv gunāhoñ kā ḳhayāl
kitnī ḳhāmoshī se darvāza khulā thā pahle
jo bhī chehra thā vo apnā sā lagā kartā thā
mai-kada raqs meñ jab jhuum rahā thā pahle
uTh gayā hai to ab is shahr ko le Dūbegā
vahī tūfāñ mire andar jo dabā thā pahle
us ki har baat ne jadu sa kiya tha pahle
kitna dilchasp kahani ka KHuda tha pahle
KHwab-lamha teri KHushbu mein basa tha pahle
be-KHabar nind mein ek phul khila tha pahle
koi tasir thi jo gham ko bhula deti thi
tere andar koi fankar chhupa tha pahle
ye badan ab tujhe be-ruh khanDar lagta hai
is haweli mein ek insan jiya tha pahle
waqt par maut ki lazzat bhi nahin de paya
mujh ko wo aadmi hira hi laga tha pahle
ek sweater ne baDha di thi jawani meri
tum ne mere liye ek KHwab buna tha pahle
main jo kahta tha wahi baat hua karti thi
mere ghar mein koi jadu ka diya tha pahle
kaise aata hai dabe panw gunahon ka KHayal
kitni KHamoshi se darwaza khula tha pahle
jo bhi chehra tha wo apna sa laga karta tha
mai-kada raqs mein jab jhum raha tha pahle
uTh gaya hai to ab is shahr ko le Dubega
wahi tufan mere andar jo daba tha pahle
