xshab-e-ahd-e-gul men baaqi hain abhi ra.ana.iyan
tairti hain gham ki gahra.i men kuchh parchha.iyan
der tak tanha khaḌa dekha kiya us moḌ par
ja chuki thiin jis taraf bajti hui shahna.iyan
saḳhti-e-daur-e-ḳhizan ko chaar din biite nahin
phir vahi bulbul ke naghme phir chaman-ara.iyan
ḳhud se bhi ḳhalvat men milne ko taras jaata huun main
lipTi rahti hain hamesha yuun miri parchha.iyan
‘nur’ be-payan ḳhala men Dubti hai jab nazar
aur baḌh jaati hain meri raat ki tanha.iyan
