phenken bhi ye libas badan ka utar ke

pheñkeñ bhī ye libās badan kā utaar ke

kab tak raheñ giraft meñ lail-o-nahār ke

tasḳhīr-e-kā.enāt-o-havādis ke bāvajūd

had pā sake na jabr-o-ġham-o-iḳhtiyār ke

bikhrā hamesha reg kī sūrat havāoñ meñ

Thahrā kabhī na misl kisī kohsār ke

tanhā khaḌā huā huuñ maiñ dasht-e-ḳhayāl meñ

ḳhāmosh ho chukā bhī samundar pukār ke

'tanvīr' āgahī deñ kahāñ tak hayāt ko

be-nūr ho chale haiñ diye e'tibār ke

phenken bhi ye libas badan ka utar ke

kab tak rahen giraft mein lail-o-nahaar ke

tasKHir-e-kaenat-o-hawadis ke bawajud

had pa sake na jabr-o-gham-o-iKHtiyar ke

bikhra hamesha reg ki surat hawaon mein

Thahra kabhi na misl kisi kohsar ke

tanha khaDa hua hun main dasht-e-KHayal mein

KHamosh ho chuka bhi samundar pukar ke

'tanwir' aagahi den kahan tak hayat ko

be-nur ho chale hain diye e'tibar ke
