utren gahrai mein tab KHak se pani aae
utreñ gahrā.ī meñ tab ḳhaak se paanī aa.e
sab ko ai dost kahāñ ashk-fishānī aa.e
phāñdnī paḌ ga.ī kāñToñ se bharī baaḌ hameñ
jitne paiġhām the phūloñ kī zabānī aa.e
bas yahī soch ke kirdār nibhāte jaao
jaane kis moḌ pe anjām-e-kahānī aa.e
ek muddat maiñ ḳhamoshī se rahā mahv-e-kalām
tab kahīñ jā ke ye lafzoñ meñ ma.ānī aa.e
kahīñ dhokā hī na ho shauq na.ī manzil kā
mere hamrāh koī raah purānī aa.e
'shāz' ḳhud meñ hī gañvā.e hue ḳhud ko rakhnā
haath jab tak na koī apnī nishānī aa.e
utren gahrai mein tab KHak se pani aae
sab ko ai dost kahan ashk-fishani aae
phandni paD gai kanTon se bhari baD hamein
jitne paigham the phulon ki zabani aae
bas yahi soch ke kirdar nibhate jao
jaane kis moD pe anjam-e-kahani aae
ek muddat main KHamoshi se raha mahw-e-kalam
tab kahin ja ke ye lafzon mein maani aae
kahin dhoka hi na ho shauq nai manzil ka
mere hamrah koi rah purani aae
'shaz' KHud mein hi ganwae hue KHud ko rakhna
hath jab tak na koi apni nishani aae
