na ab wo KHush-nazari hai na KHush-KHisali hai

na ab vo ḳhush-nazarī hai na ḳhush-ḳhisālī hai

ye kyā huā mujhe ye vaz.a kyuuñ banā lī hai

ye haal hai mire dīvār-o-dar kī vahshat kā

ki mere hote hue bhī makān ḳhālī hai

dam-e-nazāra merī hairatoñ pe ġhaur na kar

ki merī aañkh azal yūñhī savālī hai

mire vajūd ko jis ne jalā ke raakh kiyā

vo aag ab tire dāman tak aane vaalī hai

guzartī shab kā har ik lamha kah gayā mujh se

sahar ke ba.ad bhī ik raat aane vaalī hai

musāfirān-e-rah-e-shauq thak ga.e bhī to kyā

jahāñ ruke vahīñ bastī na.ī basā lī hai

na ab wo KHush-nazari hai na KHush-KHisali hai

ye kya hua mujhe ye waza kyun bana li hai

ye haal hai mere diwar-o-dar ki wahshat ka

ki mere hote hue bhi makan KHali hai

dam-e-nazara meri hairaton pe ghaur na kar

ki meri aankh azal yunhi sawali hai

mere wajud ko jis ne jala ke rakh kiya

wo aag ab tere daman tak aane wali hai

guzarti shab ka har ek lamha kah gaya mujh se

sahar ke baad bhi ek raat aane wali hai

musafiran-e-rah-e-shauq thak gae bhi to kya

jahan ruke wahin basti nai basa li hai
