maġhz-e-bahār is baras us bin bachā na thā
chīn-e-jabīñ bin ek gul ab kī hañsā na thā
jab lag meñ sub.h hsun-e-butoñ se milā na thā
dil ho.e gul sā haat se mere gayā na thā
kyā kī vafā ki mauj-e-guhar sā hai sar se band
ḳhanjar juz ek dam kā mirā āshnā na thā
jā kar fanā ke us taraf āsūda maiñ huā
maiñ ālam-e-adam meñ bhī dekhā mazā na thā
is yār-e-kārvānī ke vaqt-e-vidā.a haa.e
be-nāla ek ashk mirā juuñ darā na thā
hote hī jalva-gar tire ai āftāb-rū
siine meñ jaise shabnam-e-gul dil rahā na thā
muñh moḌ but-kada se haram ko chalā hai shaiḳh
'uzlat' magar hai ka.abe hī meñ yahāñ ḳhudā na thā
maghz-e-bahaar is baras us bin bacha na tha
chin-e-jabin bin ek gul ab ki hansa na tha
jab lag mein subh hsun-e-buton se mila na tha
dil hoe gul sa hat se mere gaya na tha
kya ki wafa ki mauj-e-guhar sa hai sar se band
KHanjar juz ek dam ka mera aashna na tha
ja kar fana ke us taraf aasuda main hua
main aalam-e-adam mein bhi dekha maza na tha
is yar-e-karwani ke waqt-e-widaa hae
be-nala ek ashk mera jun dara na tha
hote hi jalwa-gar tere ai aaftab-ru
sine mein jaise shabnam-e-gul dil raha na tha
munh moD but-kada se haram ko chala hai shaiKH
'uzlat' magar hai kabe hi mein yahan KHuda na tha
