juDe hue hain pari-KHane mere kaghaz se

juḌe hue haiñ parī-ḳhāne mere kāġhaz se

jo uTh rahe haiñ ye afsāne mere kāġhaz se

katartā rahtā hai miqrāz-e-chashm se mujh ko

banānā kyā hai use jaane mere kāġhaz se

qalam ne nok-e-alam kyā rakhī ba-chashm-e-dil

chhalakne lag ga.e paimāne mere kāġhaz se

raqam karūñ bhī to kaise maiñ dāstān-e-vafā

hurūf phirte haiñ begāne mere kāġhaz se

abhī rakhī bhī nahīñ lau charāġh par maiñ ne

lipaT ga.e ka.ī parvāne mere kāġhaz se

kudāl-e-ḳhāma se botā huuñ maiñ junūñ 'sārim'

so ugte rahte haiñ dīvāne mere kāġhaz se

juDe hue hain pari-KHane mere kaghaz se

jo uTh rahe hain ye afsane mere kaghaz se

katarta rahta hai miqraaz-e-chashm se mujh ko

banana kya hai use jaane mere kaghaz se

qalam ne nok-e-alam kya rakhi ba-chashm-e-dil

chhalakne lag gae paimane mere kaghaz se

raqam karun bhi to kaise main dastan-e-wafa

huruf phirte hain begane mere kaghaz se

abhi rakhi bhi nahin lau charagh par main ne

lipaT gae kai parwane mere kaghaz se

kudal-e-KHama se bota hun main junun 'sarim'

so ugte rahte hain diwane mere kaghaz se
