yun nahin tha ki tirgi kam thi
yuuñ nahīñ thā ki tīrgī kam thī
dhuup se apnī dostī kam thī
ḳhvāhishoñ ke hujūm the lekin
apne hisse meñ zindagī kam thī
tum na aa.e to bas huā itnā
kal charāġhoñ meñ raushnī kam thī
haañ vo hañs kar nahīñ milā phir bhī
us kī bātoñ meñ be-ruḳhī kam thī
ġham use bhī na thā bichhaḌne kā
merī āñkhoñ meñ bhī namī kam thī
kuchh taġhāful-mizāj thā saaqī
aur kuchh apnī pyaas bhī kam thī
us kā lahja to ḳhuub thā lekin
us ke sheroñ meñ shā.irī kam thī
kyuuñ mujhe de gayā vo sannāTe
kyā mire ghar meñ ḳhāmushī kam thī
yun nahin tha ki tirgi kam thi
dhup se apni dosti kam thi
KHwahishon ke hujum the lekin
apne hisse mein zindagi kam thi
tum na aae to bas hua itna
kal charaghon mein raushni kam thi
han wo hans kar nahin mila phir bhi
us ki baaton mein be-ruKHi kam thi
gham use bhi na tha bichhaDne ka
meri aankhon mein bhi nami kam thi
kuchh taghaful-mizaj tha saqi
aur kuchh apni pyas bhi kam thi
us ka lahja to KHub tha lekin
us ke sheron mein shairi kam thi
kyun mujhe de gaya wo sannaTe
kya mere ghar mein KHamushi kam thi
