ye haath apnā mire haath meñ thamā diije
thakā huā huuñ zarā dil ko hausla diije
bas ab mile haiñ to kiije na ās-pās kā ḳhauf
jo sañg-e-rāh mile paañv se haTā diije
ye aur daur hai aur sab yahāñ mujhī se haiñ
vo kohkan kī hikāyāt sab bhulā diije
nahīñ hai aap ko fursat agar tavajjoh kī
to maiñ bhī lauTtā huuñ ghar ko aa gayā diije
mirā vajūd bhī hai aap kī jabīn kā daaġh
use bhī harf-e-ġhalat kī tarah miTā diije
kal aap ne jo chhuḌāyā to chhuT sakegā na haath
jo uljhaneñ haiñ mujhe aaj hī batā diije
ye khel khelā hai jab pyaar kā to phir ai dil
ab apne-āp ko bhī daav par lagā diije
tamām-umr bhaTaktī rahī nazar ki kahīñ
mile koī jise nazrāna-e-vafā diije
mirī to jumbish-e-lab bhī hai nā-ḳhushī kā sabab
ab aa.ī hai koī tarz-e-bayāñ sikhā diije
vafā hai jurm to iqrār-e-jurm hai mujh ko
ye maiñ huuñ ye mirā dil lījiye sazā diije
vo sahme sahme judā.ī ke muztarib lamhe
mirī nigāh meñ ik baar phir basā diije
gayā nahīñ hai abhī daur aap kā 'anjum'
jo dil udaas ho phir se use sadā diije
