    ye to nahīñ ki ham pe sitam kabhī na the

    itnā zarūr thā ki vo nāguftanī na the

    ai chashm-e-iltifāt ye kyā ho gayā tujhe

    terī nazar meñ ham to kabhī ajnabī na the

    phirte haiñ āftāb-zada kā.enāt meñ

    ham par kisī zulf ke ehsāñ kabhī na the

    pāmāl kar diyā jo falak ne to kyā kaheñ

    ham to kisī kamāl ke bhī mudda.ī na the

    kyā jurm thā ye aaj bhī ham par nahīñ khulā

    ye 'ilm hai ki ahl-e-junūñ kushtanī na the

    har lamha tere 'ishq meñ umr-e-abad banā

    jo din bhī zindagī ke mile aarzī na the

    murjhā ke bhī ga.ī na mahak jism-e-nāz

    ye motiye ke phuul koī kāġhazī na the

    yārān-e-shahr 'ishq meñ be-ābrū hue

    ham par to mehrbāñ vo kabhī the kabhī na the

    iqlīm-e-āshiqī ko diyā dīn-e-shā.irī

    ham sāhib-e-kitāb the garche nabī na the

    ham jin nazr karte javāhar kalām ke

    'tāhir' hamāre shahr meñ vo jauharī na the

    ye to nahin ki hum pe sitam hi kabhi na the

    itna zarur tha ki wo naguftani na the

    ai chashm-e-iltifat ye kya ho gaya tujhe

    teri nazar mein hum to kabhi ajnabi na the

    phirte hain aaftab-zada kaenat mein

    hum par kisi ki zulf ke ehsan kabhi na the

    pamal kar diya jo falak ne to kya kahen

    hum to kisi kamal ke bhi muddai na the

    kya jurm tha ye aaj bhi hum par nahin khula

    ye 'ilm hai ki ahl-e-junun kushtani na the

    har lamha tere 'ishq mein umr-e-abad bana

    jo din bhi zindagi ke mile aarzi na the

    murjha ke bhi gai na mahak jism-e-naz ki

    ye motiye ke phul koi kaghazi na the

    yaran-e-shahr 'ishq mein be-abru hue

    hum par to mehrban wo kabhi the kabhi na the

    iqlim-e-ashiqi ko diya din-e-shairi

    hum sahib-e-kitab the garche nabi na the

    hum jin ki nazr karte jawahar kalam ke

    'tahir' hamare shahr mein wo jauhari na the
