har na.ī shaam ye ehsās huā ho goyā
merā saaya mire paikar se baḌā ho goyā

tere lahje meñ to thī hī tirī talvār kī kaaT
terī yādoñ meñ bhī ab zahar milā ho goyā

pichhle mausam meñ sabhī girya-kunāñ the magar ab
chashm-e-ḳhūñ-rañg meñ sailāb rukā ho goyā

chāñd niklā to mirī zaat ko andāza huā
us ne chupke se mirā naam liyā ho goyā

chun liyā maiñ ne to phir apnī mohabbat kā ḳhudā
us ko ab bhī hai gumāñ merā ḳhudā ho goyā

ek muddat se ḳhalāoñ meñ thiiñ āñkheñ raushan
ab ye aalam hai ki āñkhoñ meñ ḳhalā ho goyā

phuul khilne ko to naqqāsh khile ḳhvāb magar
mere zaḳhmoñ ke chaTaḳhne kī sadā ho goyā

har nai sham ye ehsas hua ho goya
mera saya mere paikar se baDa ho goya

tere lahje mein to thi hi teri talwar ki kaT
teri yaadon mein bhi ab zahar mila ho goya

pichhle mausam mein sabhi girya-kunan the magar ab
chashm-e-KHun-rang mein sailab ruka ho goya

chand nikla to meri zat ko andaza hua
us ne chupke se mera nam liya ho goya

chun liya main ne to phir apni mohabbat ka KHuda
us ko ab bhi hai guman mera KHuda ho goya

ek muddat se KHalaon mein thin aankhen raushan
ab ye aalam hai ki aankhon mein KHala ho goya

phul khilne ko to naqqash khile KHwab magar
mere zaKHmon ke chaTaKHne ki sada ho goya
