wo ahd-e-jawani wo KHarabaat ka aalam
vo ahd-e-javānī vo ḳharābāt kā aalam
naġhmāt meñ Duubī huī barsāt kā aalam
allāh-re us zulf ke jāñ-baḳhsh añdhere
jaise ki mahakte hue zulmāt kā aalam
ai ra.asha-e-mastī kā sabab pūchhne vaale
dekhā hai kabhī pahlī mulāqāt kā aalam
nikle the mire saath vo jab bazm-e-azal se
kuchh sub.h ke āsār the kuchh raat kā aalam
yuuñ us kī javānī kā kuchh andāza thā jaise
mai-ḳhāne pe umDī huī barsāt kā aalam
āñkhoñ ke tasādum meñ hikāyāt kī duniyā
hoñToñ ke tasādum meñ ḳharābāt kā aalam
āvāz meñ kaliyoñ ke chaTakne kī latāfat
raftār meñ bahte hue naġhmāt kā aalam
hañstī huī āñkhoñ se savālāt kī bārish
jalte hue hoñToñ meñ javābāt kā aalam
kuchh mujh ko ḳhabar thī na unheñ hosh thā apnā
allāh-re mad-hoshī o jazbāt kā aalam
āñkhoñ meñ shafaq jism meñ mai zulf meñ ThanDak
aalam bhī vo aalam ki ḳharābāt kā aalam
anfās se aatī huī ik narm sī ḳhushbū
simTā huā hoñToñ meñ mudārāt kā aalam
vo chiiz jise zindagī kahte haiñ vo kyā hai
hañste hue shaffāf ḳhayālāt kā aalam
baiThā huuñ 'adam' le ke baḌī der se dil meñ
kahte haiñ jise harf-o-hikāyāt kā aalam
wo ahd-e-jawani wo KHarabaat ka aalam
naghmat mein Dubi hui barsat ka aalam
allah-re us zulf ke jaan-baKHsh andhere
jaise ki mahakte hue zulmat ka aalam
ai rasha-e-masti ka sabab puchhne wale
dekha hai kabhi pahli mulaqat ka aalam
nikle the mere sath wo jab bazm-e-azal se
kuchh subh ke aasar the kuchh raat ka aalam
yun us ki jawani ka kuchh andaza tha jaise
mai-KHane pe umDi hui barsat ka aalam
aankhon ke tasadum mein hikayat ki duniya
honTon ke tasadum mein KHarabaat ka aalam
aawaz mein kaliyon ke chaTakne ki latafat
raftar mein bahte hue naghmat ka aalam
hansti hui aankhon se sawalat ki barish
jalte hue honTon mein jawabaat ka aalam
kuchh mujh ko KHabar thi na unhen hosh tha apna
allah-re mad-hoshi o jazbaat ka aalam
aankhon mein shafaq jism mein mai zulf mein ThanDak
aalam bhi wo aalam ki KHarabaat ka aalam
anfas se aati hui ek narm si KHushbu
simTa hua honTon mein mudaraat ka aalam
wo chiz jise zindagi kahte hain wo kya hai
hanste hue shaffaf KHayalat ka aalam
baiTha hun 'adam' le ke baDi der se dil mein
kahte hain jise harf-o-hikayat ka aalam
