koī achchhī ḳhabar aatī nahīñ hai shab-e-ġham kī sahar aatī nahīñ hai vo mast-e-rāhat-e-ḳhvāb-e-sahar haiñ jinheñ yād-e-safar aatī nahīñ hai

vasl bhī hijr thā visāl na thā mil rahe the magar ḳhayāl na thā mil rahe the ki donoñ tanhā

aisā bhī nahīñ dard ne vahshat nahīñ kī hai is ġham kī kabhī ham ne ishā.at nahīñ kī hai jab

chaah thī mehr thī mohabbat thī us kī har baat hī qayāmat thī vasl thā qurb thā qarābat thī dil

dard kī lahar thī guzar bhī ga.ī us ke hamrāh chashm-e-tar bhī ga.ī ik ta.alluq sā thā so ḳhatm huā

laboñ se āshnā.ī de rahā hai vo lazzat intihā.ī de rahā hai mohabbat bhī huī kār-e-mashaqqat badan thak kar duhā.ī

kamāl-e-shauq-e-safar bhī udhar hī jaatā hai kisī safar kā musāfir ho ghar hī jaatā hai vo aadmī hī to hotā

ḳhvāb ta.abīr meñ badaltā hai us meñ lekin zamāna lagtā hai jab use chāhateñ mayassar hoñ ḳhud-baḳhud aadmī badaltā hai

ta.alluq us se agarche mirā ḳharāb rahā qasam safar kī vahī ek ham-rikāb rahā samajh sakā na use maiñ qusūr

tark ulfat meñ bhī us ne ye rivāyat rakkhī roz milne kī purānī vahī aadat rakkhī tū gayā hai to
