ek tasawwur to hai taswir nahin
ik tasavvur to hai tasvīr nahīñ
ḳhvāb hai ḳhvāb kī ta.abīr nahīñ
ye rihā.ī kī tamannā kyā hai
jab mire paañv meñ zanjīr nahīñ
sub.h merī tarah ābād nahīñ
shaam merī tarah dil-gīr nahīñ
kyuuñ ubhar aayā tirī yaad kā chāñd
jab ujālā mirī taqdīr nahīñ
sañg meñ phuul khilāne vaalo
fan yahāñ bā.is-e-tauqīr nahīñ
baat kahne kā salīqa hai ġhazal
shā.irī husn hai taqrīr nahīñ
dil usī aag meñ jaltā hai 'zafar'
haa.e jis aag meñ tanvīr nahīñ
ek tasawwur to hai taswir nahin
KHwab hai KHwab ki tabir nahin
ye rihai ki tamanna kya hai
jab mere panw mein zanjir nahin
subh meri tarah aabaad nahin
sham meri tarah dil-gir nahin
kyun ubhar aaya teri yaad ka chand
jab ujala meri taqdir nahin
sang mein phul khilane walo
fan yahan bais-e-tauqir nahin
baat kahne ka saliqa hai ghazal
shairi husn hai taqrir nahin
dil usi aag mein jalta hai 'zafar'
hae jis aag mein tanwir nahin
