ye junun ke marke itne nahin aasan bhi
ye junūñ ke ma.arke itne nahīñ āsān bhī
soch lenā is meñ jā saktī hai terī jaan bhī
raushnī bhī chāhiye taaza havā ke saath saath
khiḌkiyāñ rakhtā huuñ apne ghar meñ roshan-dān bhī
zindagī meñ jo tumheñ ḳhud se ziyāda the aziiz
un se milne kyā kabhī jaate ho qabristān bhī
gaañv kī pagDañDiyāñ pakkī saḌak se jā milīñ
tañg galiyoñ meñ badal kar rah ga.e maidān bhī
pāsbān-e-aql ne to mujh ko samjhāyā bahut
thā magar pahlū meñ mere dil sā ik nādān bhī
ḳhushk haiñ dariyā samundar kaT ga.e jañgal tamām
ret se ḳhālī hue jaate haiñ registān bhī
mere lafzoñ ke ujāle maañd paḌte jā.eñge
dhund meñ kho jā.egī ik din mirī pahchān bhī
ḳhud ko kaise qatl hone se bachātā meñ 'talab'
raat mere ghar meñ ik qātil thā aur mehmān bhī
ye junun ke marke itne nahin aasan bhi
soch lena is mein ja sakti hai teri jaan bhi
raushni bhi chahiye taza hawa ke sath sath
khiDkiyan rakhta hun apne ghar mein roshan-dan bhi
zindagi mein jo tumhein KHud se ziyaada the aziz
un se milne kya kabhi jate ho qabristan bhi
ganw ki pagDanDiyan pakki saDak se ja milin
tang galiyon mein badal kar rah gae maidan bhi
pasban-e-aql ne to mujh ko samjhaya bahut
tha magar pahlu mein mere dil sa ek nadan bhi
KHushk hain dariya samundar kaT gae jangal tamam
ret se KHali hue jate hain registan bhi
mere lafzon ke ujale mand paDte jaenge
dhund mein kho jaegi ek din meri pahchan bhi
KHud ko kaise qatl hone se bachata mein 'talab'
raat mere ghar mein ek qatil tha aur mehman bhi
