pahli si ab wo shoKHi guftar bhi nahin
pahlī sī ab vo shoḳhī guftār bhī nahīñ
muddat se zauq-e-naġhma-o-ash.ār bhī nahīñ
suunī paḌī hai manzil-e-dīvāngī-e-ishq
kyā ho gayā ki koī sar-e-dār bhī nahīñ
vaa.iz sharāb-noshī ke behad ḳhilāf haiñ
mil jaa.e muft kī to kuchh inkār bhī nahīñ
vo sāmne jo aa.e to nazreñ na uTh sakīñ
ab mujh meñ jaise tāqat-e-dīdār bhī nahīñ
kab hogī ḳhatm 'tāhira' shām-e-ġham-e-hayāt
ab tak numūd-e-sub.h ke āsār bhī nahīñ
pahli si ab wo shoKHi guftar bhi nahin
muddat se zauq-e-naghma-o-ashaar bhi nahin
suni paDi hai manzil-e-diwangi-e-ishq
kya ho gaya ki koi sar-e-dar bhi nahin
waiz sharab-noshi ke behad KHilaf hain
mil jae muft ki to kuchh inkar bhi nahin
wo samne jo aae to nazren na uTh sakin
ab mujh mein jaise taqat-e-didar bhi nahin
kab hogi KHatm 'tahira' sham-e-gham-e-hayat
ab tak numud-e-subh ke aasar bhi nahin
