ye raat bhayanak hijr ki hai kaTenge baDe aalam se hum
ye raat bhayānak hijr kī hai kāTeñge baḌe ālām se ham
Talne kī nahīñ ye kaalī balā samjhe hue the shaam se ham
jab qais pahāḌ is sar se Tale iid aa.ī tab aa.ī jaan meñ jaan
tā der ajab aalam meñ rahe hoñToñ ko milā.e jaam se ham
thā maut kā khaTkā jāñ-farsā sad shukr ki niklā vo kāñTā
gar ho na qayāmat kā dhaḌkā ab to haiñ baḌe ārām se ham
tā-manzil-e-jānāñ saath rahā kam-baḳht tasavvur ġhairoñ kā
shauq apne qadam khīñchā hī kiyā palTā hī kiye har gaam se ham
ulfat ne unhīñ kī haq kī taraf pherā mire dil ko shukr-e-ḳhudā
tāmīr kareñ masjid koī kyūñkar na butoñ ke naam se ham
ai ham-nafaso dam lene do bhūle hue naġhme yaad aa leñ
aa.e haiñ chaman meñ uḌ ke abhī chhūTe haiñ isī dam daam se ham
bātoñ meñ guzarte hijr ke din ai kaash ki donoñ mil jaate
ham se hai dil-e-nākām ḳhafā āzurda dil-e-nākām se ham
yuuñ un ke adab yā ḳhātir se har baat ko le leñ apne sar
jab dil hai unhīñ ke qaabū meñ phir paak haiñ har ilzām se ham
vo samjhe ki ham ne maar liyā ham samjhe mileñge āḳhir vo
milte hī nigah ke donoñ ḳhush āġhāz se vo anjām se ham
duniyā meñ taḳhallus koī na thā kyā niil kā Tiikā 'shād' hī thā
tum vaj.h na pūchho kuchh is kī chiḌh jaate haiñ kyuuñ is naam se ham
ye raat bhayanak hijr ki hai kaTenge baDe aalam se hum
Talne ki nahin ye kali bala samjhe hue the sham se hum
jab qais pahaD is sar se Tale id aai tab aai jaan mein jaan
ta der ajab aalam mein rahe honTon ko milae jam se hum
tha maut ka khaTka jaan-farsa sad shukr ki nikla wo kanTa
gar ho na qayamat ka dhaDka ab to hain baDe aaram se hum
ta-manzil-e-jaanan sath raha kam-baKHt tasawwur ghairon ka
shauq apne qadam khincha hi kiya palTa hi kiye har gam se hum
ulfat ne unhin ki haq ki taraf phera mere dil ko shukr-e-KHuda
tamir karen masjid koi kyunkar na buton ke nam se hum
ai ham-nafaso dam lene do bhule hue naghme yaad aa len
aae hain chaman mein uD ke abhi chhuTe hain isi dam dam se hum
baaton mein guzarte hijr ke din ai kash ki donon mil jate
hum se hai dil-e-nakaam KHafa aazurda dil-e-nakaam se hum
yun un ke adab ya KHatir se har baat ko le len apne sar
jab dil hai unhin ke qabu mein phir pak hain har ilzam se hum
wo samjhe ki hum ne mar liya hum samjhe milenge aaKHir wo
milte hi nigah ke donon KHush aaghaz se wo anjam se hum
duniya mein taKHallus koi na tha kya nil ka Tika 'shad' hi tha
tum wajh na puchho kuchh is ki chiDh jate hain kyun is nam se hum
