tumhaara nam zaban se nikal gaya aaKHir

tumhārā naam zabāñ se nikal gayā āḳhir

zamāna mere gumāñ se nikal gayā āḳhir

sambhāl kar jise rakkhā huā thā muddat se

vo tiir terī kamāñ se nikal gayā āḳhir

tamām apne savāl-o-javāb bhuul ga.e

hisāb-e-sūd-o-ziyāñ se nikal gayā āḳhir

har ek shaḳhs meñ tujh ko talāsh kartā huā

hujūm-e-nukta-varāñ se nikal gayā āḳhir

jo lāzmī thā tire sāmne adā honā

vo ek lafz bayāñ se nikal gayā āḳhir

tumhāre sāmne kab tak ḳhirad vafā kartī

makīn-e-hosh makāñ se nikal gayā āḳhir

mirī talāsh meñ had hī ubuur kar Daalī

mire liye vo jahāñ se nikal gayā āḳhir

tumhaara nam zaban se nikal gaya aaKHir

zamana mere guman se nikal gaya aaKHir

sambhaal kar jise rakkha hua tha muddat se

wo tir teri kaman se nikal gaya aaKHir

tamam apne sawal-o-jawab bhul gae

hisab-e-sud-o-ziyan se nikal gaya aaKHir

har ek shaKHs mein tujh ko talash karta hua

hujum-e-nukta-waran se nikal gaya aaKHir

jo lazmi tha tere samne ada hona

wo ek lafz bayan se nikal gaya aaKHir

tumhaare samne kab tak KHirad wafa karti

makin-e-hosh makan se nikal gaya aaKHir

meri talash mein had hi ubur kar Dali

mere liye wo jahan se nikal gaya aaKHir
