wo jis ke dil mein nihan dard do-jahan ka tha
vo jis ke dil meñ nihāñ dard do-jahāñ kā thā
ḳhabar kisī ko nahīñ kaun thā kahāñ kā thā
talāsh-e-yār meñ bhaTkā kiye ḳhalāoñ meñ
hameñ zamīñ kā pata thā na āsmāñ kā thā
hañsā jo phuul to shabnam kī aañkh bhar aa.ī
bahār samjhā jise daur vo ḳhizāñ kā thā
hazār baar marā zindagī meñ jīte-jī
vo shaḳhs ḳhauf jise marg-e-nā-gahāñ kā thā
vahīñ pe jā ke rukī aaj be-ḳhudī apnī
jahāñ pe moḌ mohabbat kī dāstāñ kā thā
bikhertā hī rahā nuur vo shab-e-ġham meñ
jo māhtāb tasavvur ke āsmāñ kā thā
vo jis ne raat dar-e-dil pe aa ke dastak dī
zarūr jhoñkā kisī yād-e-raftagāñ kā thā
tamām umr kī kāvish se tai na ho paayā
vo ek fāsla jo apne darmiyāñ kā thā
huā thā qātil sar-e-ām jab mirā yaaro
ajiib rañg kuchh us vaqt āsmāñ kā thā
wo jis ke dil mein nihan dard do-jahan ka tha
KHabar kisi ko nahin kaun tha kahan ka tha
talash-e-yar mein bhaTka kiye KHalaon mein
hamein zamin ka pata tha na aasman ka tha
hansa jo phul to shabnam ki aankh bhar aai
bahaar samjha jise daur wo KHizan ka tha
hazar bar mara zindagi mein jite-ji
wo shaKHs KHauf jise marg-e-na-gahan ka tha
wahin pe ja ke ruki aaj be-KHudi apni
jahan pe moD mohabbat ki dastan ka tha
bikherta hi raha nur wo shab-e-gham mein
jo mahtab tasawwur ke aasman ka tha
wo jis ne raat dar-e-dil pe aa ke dastak di
zarur jhonka kisi yaad-e-raftagan ka tha
tamam umr ki kawish se tai na ho paya
wo ek fasla jo apne darmiyan ka tha
hua tha qatil sar-e-am jab mera yaro
ajib rang kuchh us waqt aasman ka tha
