jo jism o jaañ se chalī jism o jaañ talak pahuñchī

wo KHwab KHwab faza-e-tarab nahin aai
ajib hi thi wo shab phir wo shab nahin aai
jo jism o jaan se chali jism o jaan talak pahunchi
wo mauj-e-garmi-e-ruKHsar-o-lab nahin aai
to phir charagh the hum be-charagh raaton ke
palaT ke guzri hui raat jab nahin aai
ajab the harf ki lazzat mein jalne wale log
ki KHak ho gae KHu-e-adab nahin aai
jo abr ban ke barasti hai ruh-e-viran par
bahut dinon se wo aawaz-e-rab nahin aai
sada lagaen aur apna mazaq uDwaen
ye ahl-e-dard pe uftad kab nahin aai
kiya hai apne hi qadmon ne paemal bahut
ye hum mein kaj-kalhi be-sabab nahin aai
