silsila mere safar ka kabhi TuTa hi nahin

fursat mein raha karte hain fursat se zyaada

tujhko pane ke liye KHak-e-tamanna ho jaun

jhuT raushan hai ki sachchai nahin jaante hain

apni tahzib ki diwar sambhaale hue hain

sarsabz mausamon ka asar le gaya koi

ja chuka tufan lekin kapkapi hai

KHak uDti hai KHaridar kahan kho gae hain

barae nam sahi din ke hath pile hain

kisi ke waste jita hai ab na marta hai

nind TuTi to samundar na jazira dekha

KHwab aankhon se chune nind ko viran kiya

tilism-e-kar-e-jahan ka asar tamam hua

jis ko qarib paya usi se lipaT gae

main laDkhaDaya to mujhko gale lagane lage

kaam aati nahin ab koi tadbir hamari

hara shajar na sahi KHushk ghas rahne de

tanhai ki KHalij hai yun darmiyan mein

chhin le quwwat binai KHudaya mujhse

dar-ba-dar ki KHak peshani pe mal kar aaega

hum mutmain hain uski raza ke baghair bhi

meri qadim riwayat ko aazmane lage

wahi be-sabab se nishan har taraf

tilism-KHana-e-dil mein hai chaar-su raushan

sab ka chehra pas-e-diwar-e-ana rahta hai

KHwabon ki lazzaton pe thakan ka ghilaf tha

tera gham teri aarzu kab tak

harif-e-waqt hun sab se juda hai rah meri

musibat mein bhi ghairat-ashna KHamosh rahti hai

tanhaiyon ki barf thi bistar pe ja-ba-ja

raqs karta hai ba-andaz-e-junun dauDta hai

ab tak lahu ka zaiqa KHanjar pe naqsh hai

ye jo hum atlas o kim-KHwab liye phirte hain

mere chaaron taraf ye sazish-e-tasKHir kaisi hai

nafas nafas iztirab mein tha

KHana-barbaad hue be-dar-o-diwar rahe

hangamon ke qaht se khiDki darwaze mabhut

koi bhi shahr mein khul kar na baghal-gir hua

KHush-rang-o-tar-o-taza jawani ki taraf aa

raqs-e-taus-e-tamanna nahin hone wala

har ek lamha hamein humse juda karti hui si

kuchh Dubta ubharta sa rahta hai samne

har-chand apne aks ka dil dardmand ho

pas-e-ghubar-e-talab KHauf-e-justuju hai bahut

saat-e-marg-e-musalsal har nafas bhaari hui

qadam uThate hi chakra ke gir paDen hum bhi

dastar-e-ehtiyat bacha kar na aaega

sans ukhDi hui sukhe hue lab kuchh bhi nahin

barae nam sahi din ke hath pile hain

mearaj-e-irtiqa hai tamasha na jaaniye
