lab par nam kisi ka bhi ho
lab par naam kisī kā bhī ho, dil meñ terā naqshā hai
ai tasvīr banāne vaalī jab se tujh ko dekhā hai
be-tere kyā vahshat ham ko, tujh bin kaisā sabr o sukūñ
tū hī apnā shahr hai jaanī tū hī apnā sahrā hai
niile parbat uudī dhartī, chāroñ kuuT meñ tū hī tū
tujh se apne jī kī ḳhalvat tujh se man kā melā hai
aaj to ham bikne ko aa.e, aaj hamāre daam lagā
yūsuf to bāzār-e-vafā meñ, ek Tike ko biktā hai
le jaanī ab apne man ke pairāhan kī girheñ khol
le jaanī ab aadhī shab hai, chaar taraf sannāTā hai
tūfānoñ kī baat nahīñ hai, tūfāñ aate jaate haiñ
tū ik narm havā kā jhoñkā, dil ke baaġh meñ Thahrā hai
yā tū aaj hameñ apnā le, yā tū aaj hamārā ban
dekh ki vaqt guzartā jaa.e kaun abad tak jiitā hai
fardā mahz fusūñ kā pardā, ham to aaj ke bande haiñ
hijr o vasl, vafā aur dhokā sab kuchh aaj pe rakkhā hai
lab par nam kisi ka bhi ho, dil mein tera naqsha hai
ai taswir banane wali jab se tujh ko dekha hai
be-tere kya wahshat hum ko, tujh bin kaisa sabr o sukun
tu hi apna shahr hai jaani tu hi apna sahra hai
nile parbat udi dharti, chaaron kuT mein tu hi tu
tujh se apne ji ki KHalwat tujh se man ka mela hai
aaj to hum bikne ko aae, aaj hamare dam laga
yusuf to bazar-e-wafa mein, ek Tike ko bikta hai
le jaani ab apne man ke pairahan ki girhen khol
le jaani ab aadhi shab hai, chaar taraf sannaTa hai
tufanon ki baat nahin hai, tufan aate jate hain
tu ek narm hawa ka jhonka, dil ke bagh mein Thahra hai
ya tu aaj hamein apna le, ya tu aaj hamara ban
dekh ki waqt guzarta jae kaun abad tak jita hai
farda mahz fusun ka parda, hum to aaj ke bande hain
hijr o wasl, wafa aur dhoka sab kuchh aaj pe rakkha hai
