ada hai KHwab hai taskin hai tamasha hai
adā hai ḳhvāb hai taskīn hai tamāshā hai
hamārī aañkh meñ ik shaḳhs be-tahāshā hai
zarā sī chaa.e girī aur daaġh daaġh varaq
ye zindagī hai ki aḳhbār kā tarāshā hai
tumhārā boltā chehra palak se chhū chhū kar
ye raat ā.īna kī hai ye din tarāshā hai
tire vajūd se bāra-darī damak uTThī
ki phuul pallū sarakne se irti.āshā hai
maiñ be-zabāñ nahīñ jo boltā huuñ likh likh kar
mirī zabān tale zahr kā batāshā hai
tumhārī yaad ke charkoñ se laḳht laḳht hai jī
ki ḳhanjaroñ se kisī ne badan ko qāshā hai
jahān bhar se jahāñ-gard dekhne aa.eñ
ki putliyoñ kā mire mulk meñ tamāshā hai
ada hai KHwab hai taskin hai tamasha hai
hamari aankh mein ek shaKHs be-tahasha hai
zara si chae giri aur dagh dagh waraq
ye zindagi hai ki aKHbar ka tarasha hai
tumhaara bolta chehra palak se chhu chhu kar
ye raat aaina ki hai ye din tarasha hai
tere wajud se bara-dari damak uTThi
ki phul pallu sarakne se irtiasha hai
main be-zaban nahin jo bolta hun likh likh kar
meri zaban tale zahr ka batasha hai
tumhaari yaad ke charkon se laKHt laKHt hai ji
ki KHanjaron se kisi ne badan ko qasha hai
jahan bhar se jahan-gard dekhne aaen
ki putliyon ka mere mulk mein tamasha hai
