wo KHauf-e-jaan tha ki lab kholna gawara na tha
vo ḳhauf-e-jāñ thā ki lab kholnā gavārā na thā
sadā.eñ sahmī kuchh aisī suḳhan kā yaarā na thā
tamām apne parā.e kaTe kaTe se rahe
chhurī jo chamkī to us ne kise pukārā na thā
ruḳh-e-kamāñ thā udhar tiir kā nishāna idhar
hamārā dost to thā aur magar hamārā na thā
rafū-talab nazar aatā hai dekhiye jis ko
libās-e-jāñ to kabhī itnā paara paara na thā
ḳhudā kare ki rahe mehrbāñ sadā tum par
azīzo vaqt ki ik lamha bhī hamārā na thā
uḌāneñ bharte parindoñ ke par katar Dāleñ
nazar ke sāmne aisā kabhī nazāra na thā
hai duur hadd-e-nazar se to kyā qayāmat hai
hamāre paas thā jab tak vo itnā pyārā na thā
wo KHauf-e-jaan tha ki lab kholna gawara na tha
sadaen sahmi kuchh aisi suKHan ka yara na tha
tamam apne parae kaTe kaTe se rahe
chhuri jo chamki to us ne kise pukara na tha
ruKH-e-kaman tha udhar tir ka nishana idhar
hamara dost to tha aur magar hamara na tha
rafu-talab nazar aata hai dekhiye jis ko
libas-e-jaan to kabhi itna para para na tha
KHuda kare ki rahe mehrban sada tum par
azizo waqt ki ek lamha bhi hamara na tha
uDanen bharte parindon ke par katar Dalen
nazar ke samne aisa kabhi nazara na tha
hai dur hadd-e-nazar se to kya qayamat hai
hamare pas tha jab tak wo itna pyara na tha
