wafa ki rah mein kis ka ye naqsh-e-pa nikla

vafā kī raah meñ kis kā ye naqsh-e-pā niklā

jabīn-e-shauq tirā aaj hausla niklā

sukūt-e-āḳhir-e-shab aur fasurdagī dil kī

bujhā bujhā sā tirī yaad kā diyā niklā

kamī thī kuchh tirī bazm-e-tarab meñ kyā saaqī

ki jur.a jur.a bhalā kis kā hausla niklā

kabhī baraste the la.al-o-guhar isī ghar meñ

isī makāñ se magar kāsa-e-gadā niklā

kaThin thī rāh-e-vafā duur manzil-e-jānāñ

qadam baḌhā.e to lamhoñ kā fāsla niklā

mirā fasāna to har ahd kā fasāna hai

ki lafz lafz mohabbat kā mājrā niklā

wafa ki rah mein kis ka ye naqsh-e-pa nikla

jabin-e-shauq tera aaj hausla nikla

sukut-e-aKHir-e-shab aur fasurdagi dil ki

bujha bujha sa teri yaad ka diya nikla

kami thi kuchh teri bazm-e-tarab mein kya saqi

ki jura jura bhala kis ka hausla nikla

kabhi baraste the lal-o-guhar isi ghar mein

isi makan se magar kasa-e-gada nikla

kaThin thi rah-e-wafa dur manzil-e-jaanan

qadam baDhae to lamhon ka fasla nikla

mera fasana to har ahd ka fasana hai

ki lafz lafz mohabbat ka majra nikla
