miras-e-be-baha bhi bachai na ja saki
mīrās-e-be-bahā bhī bachā.ī na jā sakī
ik zillat-e-vafā thī uThā.ī na jā sakī
vādoñ kī raat aisī ghanī thī siyāh thī
qindīl-e-e'tibār bujhā.ī na jā sakī
chāhā thā tum pe vāreñge lafzoñ kī kā.enāt
ye daulat-e-suḳhan bhī kamā.ī na jā sakī
vo sahar thā ki rañg bhī be-rañg the tamām
tasvīr-e-yār ham se banā.ī na jā sakī
ham madrasān-e-ishq ke vo honhār tifl
ham se kitāb-e-aql uThā.ī na jā sakī
vo thartharī thī jān-e-suḳhan tere rū-ba-rū
tujh par kahī ġhazal bhī sunā.ī na jā sakī
miras-e-be-baha bhi bachai na ja saki
ek zillat-e-wafa thi uThai na ja saki
wadon ki raat aisi ghani thi siyah thi
qindil-e-e'tibar bujhai na ja saki
chaha tha tum pe warenge lafzon ki kaenat
ye daulat-e-suKHan bhi kamai na ja saki
wo sahar tha ki rang bhi be-rang the tamam
taswir-e-yar hum se banai na ja saki
hum madrasan-e-ishq ke wo honhaar tifl
hum se kitab-e-aql uThai na ja saki
wo tharthari thi jaan-e-suKHan tere ru-ba-ru
tujh par kahi ghazal bhi sunai na ja saki
