    mere shānoñ pe tirā sar thā nigāheñ namnāk

    ab to ik yaad baaqī hai so vo bhī kyā hai

    ghar gayā zehn ġham-e-zīst ke andāzoñ meñ

    har hathelī pe dhare soch rahā huuñ baiThā

    kaash us vaqt koī pīr-e-ḳhamīda aa kar

    kisī āzurda tabī.at fasāna kahtā

    ik dhuñdlakā hai dam toḌ chukā hai sūraj

    din ke dāman pe haiñ dhabbe se riyā-kārī ke

    aur maġhrib fanā-gāh meñ phailā huā ḳhuuñ

    dabtā jaatā hai siyāhī tahoñ ke nīche

    duur tālāb ke nazdīk vo sūkhī babūl

    chand TuuTe hue vīrān makānoñ se pare

    haath phailā.e barahna khaḌī hai ḳhāmosh

    jaise ġhurbat meñ musāfir ko sahārā na mile

    us ke pīchhe se jhijaktā huā ik gol chāñd

    ubhrā be-nūr shuāoñ ke safīne ko liye

    maiñ abhī soch rahā huuñ ki agar mil jaa.e

    zindagī-go hai girāñ-bār pa itnī na rahe

    chand aañsū ġham-e-gītī ke liye chand nafas

    ek ghaav hai jise yuuñ siye jaate haiñ

    maiñ agar bhī rahā huuñ to ta.ajjub kyā hai

    mujh se lākhoñ haiñ jo be-sūd jiye jaate haiñ

    koī markaz nahīñ mere taḳhayyul ke liye

    is se kyā fā.eda jiite rahe aur na sake

    ab irāda hai ki patthar ke sanam pūjūñgā

    taaki ghabrā.ūñ to Takrā bhī sakūñ mar bhī sakūñ

    aise insānoñ se patthar ke sanam achchhe haiñ

    un ke qadmoñ pe machaltā ho damaktā huā ḳhuuñ

    aur vo merī mohabbat pe kabhī hañs na sakeñ

    maiñ bhī be-rañg nigāhoñ shikāyat na karūñ

    kahīñ gosha-e-ahrām ke sannāTe meñ

    ke ḳhvābīda farā.īn se itnā pūchhūñ

    har zamāne meñ ka.ī the ki ḳhudā ek thā

    ab to itne haiñ ki hairān huuñ kis ko pūjūñ

    ab to maġhrib fanā-gāh meñ vo sog nahīñ

    aks tahrīr hai ik raat halkā halkā

    aur pur-soz dhundalke se vahī gol chāñd

    apnī be-nūr shuāoñ safīna khetā

    ubhrā namnāk nigāhoñ se mujhe taktā huā

    jaise ghul kar mire aañsū meñ badal jā.egā

    haath phailā.e udhar dekh rahī hai vo babūl

    sochtī hogī koī mujh hai ye bhī tanhā

    ā.īna ban ke shab-o-roz takā kartā hai

    kaisā tālāb hai jo us ko harā kar na sakā

    yuuñ guzāre se guzar jā.eñge din apne bhī

    par ye hasrat rahegī ki guzāre na ga.e

    ḳhuun ke pilā kartī hai angūr bel

    gar yahī rañg-e-tamannā thā chalo yūñhī sahī

    ḳhuun piitī rahī baḌhtī rahī koñpal koñpal

    chhāñv tāroñ shagūfoñ ko numū detī rahī

    narm shāḳhoñ ko thapakte rahe ayyām ke haath

    yūñhī din biit ga.e sub.h huī shaam huī

    ab magar yaad nahīñ kyā thā ma.āl-e-ummīd

    ek tahrīr hai halkī lahū baaqī

    bel phaltī hai to kāñToñ ko chhupā letī hai

    zindagī apnī pareshāñ thī pareshāñ rahī

    chāhtā ye thā mire zaḳhm ke angūr bañdheñ

    ye na chāhā thā mirā jām-e-tahī rah jaa.e

    haath phailā.e udhar dekh rahī hai vo babūl

    sochtī hogī koī mujh hai ye bhī tanhā

    ghir gayā zehn ġham-e-zīst ke andāzoñ meñ

    kaisā tālāb hai jo us ko harā kar na sakā

    kaash is vaqt koī pīr-e-ḳhamīda aa kar

    mere shānoñ ko thapaktā ġham-e-tanhā.ī meñ

    mere shanon pe tera sar tha nigahen namnak

    ab to ek yaad si baqi hai so wo bhi kya hai

    ghar gaya zehn gham-e-zist ke andazon mein

    har hatheli pe dhare soch raha hun baiTha

    kash us waqt koi pir-e-KHamida aa kar

    kisi aazurda tabiat ka fasana kahta

    ek dhundlaka sa hai dam toD chuka hai suraj

    din ke daman pe hain dhabbe se riya-kari ke

    aur maghrib ki fana-gah mein phaila hua KHun

    dabta jata hai siyahi ki tahon ke niche

    dur talab ke nazdik wo sukhi si babul

    chand TuTe hue viran makanon se pare

    hath phailae barahna si khaDi hai KHamosh

    jaise ghurbat mein musafir ko sahaara na mile

    us ke pichhe se jhijakta hua ek gol sa chand

    ubhra be-nur shuaon ke safine ko liye

    main abhi soch raha hun ki agar tu mil jae

    zindagi-go hai giran-bar pa itni na rahe

    chand aansu gham-e-giti ke liye chand nafas

    ek ghaw hai jise yun hi siye jate hain

    main agar ji bhi raha hun to tajjub kya hai

    mujh se lakhon hain jo be-sud jiye jate hain

    koi markaz hi nahin mere taKHayyul ke liye

    is se kya faeda jite rahe aur ji na sake

    ab irada hai ki patthar ke sanam pujunga

    taki ghabraun to Takra bhi sakun mar bhi sakun

    aise insanon se patthar ke sanam achchhe hain

    un ke qadmon pe machalta ho damakta hua KHun

    aur wo meri mohabbat pe kabhi hans na saken

    main bhi be-rang nigahon ki shikayat na karun

    ya kahin gosha-e-ahram ke sannaTe mein

    ja ke KHwabida farain se itna puchhun

    har zamane mein kai the ki KHuda ek hi tha

    ab to itne hain ki hairan hun kis ko pujun

    ab to maghrib ki fana-gah mein wo sog nahin

    aks tahrir hai ek raat ka halka halka

    aur pur-soz dhundalke se wahi gol sa chand

    apni be-nur shuaon ka safina kheta

    ubhra namnak nigahon se mujhe takta hua

    jaise ghul kar mere aansu mein badal jaega

    hath phailae udhar dekh rahi hai wo babul

    sochti hogi koi mujh sa hai ye bhi tanha

    aaina ban ke shab-o-roz taka karta hai

    kaisa talab hai jo us ko hara kar na saka

    yun guzare se guzar jaenge din apne bhi

    par ye hasrat hi rahegi ki guzare na gae

    KHun pi pi ke pila karti hai angur ki bel

    gar yahi rang-e-tamanna tha chalo yunhi sahi

    KHun piti rahi baDhti rahi konpal konpal

    chhanw taron ki shagufon ko numu deti rahi

    narm shaKHon ko thapakte rahe ayyam ke hath

    yunhi din bit gae subh hui sham hui

    ab magar yaad nahin kya tha maal-e-ummid

    ek tahrir hai halki si lahu ki baqi

    bel phalti hai to kanTon ko chhupa leti hai

    zindagi apni pareshan thi pareshan hi rahi

    chahta ye tha mere zaKHm ke angur bandhen

    ye na chaha tha mera jam-e-tahi rah jae

    hath phailae udhar dekh rahi hai wo babul

    sochti hogi koi mujh sa hai ye bhi tanha

    ghir gaya zehn gham-e-zist ke andazon mein

    kaisa talab hai jo us ko hara kar na saka

    kash is waqt koi pir-e-KHamida aa kar

    mere shanon ko thapakta gham-e-tanhai mein
