ek parinda sar-e-diwar bhi baqi na raha

ik parinda sar-e-dīvār bhī baaqī na rahā

ab to parvāz kā dīdār bhī baaqī na rahā

habs aisā thā ki saa.e meñ sulag uTThe gulāb

lū chalī aisī ki gulzār bhī baaqī na rahā

log dam saadh ga.e ḳhauf ne gherā aise

koī andesha-e-be-kār bhī baaqī na rahā

hādisa kyā huā bikhre hue sannāTe meñ

lafz se rishta-e-iz.hār bhī baaqī na rahā

ek vahshat hī matā.a-e-ġham-e-jānāñ niklī

lutf-e-dildārī-e-ġham-ḳhvār bhī baaqī na rahā

jaañ sisaktī rahī ḳhvāhish ke bayābānoñ meñ

shauq-e-har-lahza kā āzār bhī baaqī na rahā

dil bhī yādoñ kī kaḌī dhuup meñ kumhlā sā gayā

aur koī sāya-e-dīvār bhī baaqī na rahā

aisī vīrānī hai ḳhud maut bhī katrā ke chalī

koī marne kā sazā-vār bhī baaqī na rahā

ek parinda sar-e-diwar bhi baqi na raha

ab to parwaz ka didar bhi baqi na raha

habs aisa tha ki sae mein sulag uTThe gulab

lu chali aisi ki gulzar bhi baqi na raha

log dam sadh gae KHauf ne ghera aise

koi andesha-e-be-kar bhi baqi na raha

hadisa kya hua bikhre hue sannaTe mein

lafz se rishta-e-izhaar bhi baqi na raha

ek wahshat hi mataa-e-gham-e-jaanan nikli

lutf-e-dildari-e-gham-KHwar bhi baqi na raha

jaan sisakti rahi KHwahish ke bayabanon mein

shauq-e-har-lahza ka aazar bhi baqi na raha

dil bhi yaadon ki kaDi dhup mein kumhla sa gaya

aur koi saya-e-diwar bhi baqi na raha

aisi virani hai KHud maut bhi katra ke chali

koi marne ka saza-war bhi baqi na raha
