koī ās-pās nahīñ rahā to ḳhayāl terī taraf gayā
mujhe apnā haath bhī chhū gayā to ḳhayāl terī taraf gayā
koī aa ke jaise chalā gayā koī jā ke jaise gayā nahīñ
mujhe apnā ghar kabhī ghar lagā to ḳhayāl terī taraf gayā
mirī be-kalī thī shaguftagī so bahār mujh se lipaT ga.ī
kahā vahm ne ki ye kaun thā to ḳhayāl terī taraf gayā
mujhe kab kisī kī umañg thī mirī apne aap se jañg thī
huā jab shikast kā sāmnā to ḳhayāl terī taraf gayā
kisī hādse kī ḳhabar huī to fazā kī saañs ukhaḌ ga.ī
koī ittifāq se bach gayā to ḳhayāl terī taraf gayā
tire hijr meñ ḳhur-o-ḳhvāb kā ka.ī din se hai yahī silsila
koī luqma haath se gir paḌā to ḳhayāl terī taraf gayā
mire iḳhtiyār kī shiddateñ mirī dastaras se nikal ga.iiñ
kabhī tū bhī sāmne aa gayā to ḳhayāl terī taraf gayā
