jab koi tir hawadis ki kaman se aaya

jab koī tiir havādis kī kamāñ se aayā

naġhma ik aur mire mutrib-e-jāñ se aayā

ek nazzāre ne mere liye āñkheñ bhejīñ

dil kisī kārgah-e-shīsha-girāñ se aayā

jab bhī is dil ne tire qurb kī daulat chāhī

ek saaya sā nikal kar rag-e-jāñ se aayā

maiñ na Dartā thā anāsir kī sitam-koshī se

ḳhauf aayā to bas ik umr-e-ravāñ se aayā

kyā karūñ ḳhil.at o dastār kī ḳhvāhish ki mujhe

ziist karne kā salīqa bhī ziyāñ se aayā

maiñ to ik ḳhvāb ko āñkhoñ meñ liye phirtā thā

ye sitāra mire pahlū meñ kahāñ se aayā

jab koi tir hawadis ki kaman se aaya

naghma ek aur mere mutrib-e-jaan se aaya

ek nazzare ne mere liye aankhen bhejin

dil kisi kargah-e-shisha-giran se aaya

jab bhi is dil ne tere qurb ki daulat chahi

ek saya sa nikal kar rag-e-jaan se aaya

main na Darta tha anasir ki sitam-koshi se

KHauf aaya to bas ek umr-e-rawan se aaya

kya karun KHilat o dastar ki KHwahish ki mujhe

zist karne ka saliqa bhi ziyan se aaya

main to ek KHwab ko aankhon mein liye phirta tha

ye sitara mere pahlu mein kahan se aaya
