kanch ki zanjir TuTi to sada bhi aaegi
kāñch kī zanjīr TuuTī to sadā bhī aa.egī
aur bhare bāzār meñ tujh ko hayā bhī aa.egī
itr meñ kapḌe basā kar mutma.in hai kis liye
bā-vafā hū jā ki yuuñ bū-e-vafā bhī aa.egī
dekh le sāhil se jī bhar ke machaltī lahr ko
is taraf kuchh der meñ mauj-e-fanā bhī aa.egī
dūdhiyā nāzuk gale meñ bāñdh le ta.avīz ko
aaj suntā huuñ ki bastī meñ balā bhī aa.egī
raat ke pichhle pahar dastak kā rakh lenā ḳhayāl
patte khaḌkeñge zarā āvāz-e-pā bhī aa.egī
ujlī ujlī ḳhvāhishoñ par niiñd kī chādar na Daal
yaad ke rauzan se kuchh taaza havā bhī aa.egī
jā chuke saare bagūle fikr kī kyā baat hai
khet ko sairāb karne ab ghaTā bhī aa.egī
daur ke logoñ ko nazroñ meñ basā kar dekh le
qurb mil jā.egā āñkhoñ meñ jilā bhī aa.egī
shahr-e-nā-pursāñ ke manzar naqsh kar le zehn meñ
aañkh raste meñ koī manzar girā bhī aa.egī
dil kī masjid meñ kabhī paḌh le tahajjud kī namāz
phir sahar ke vaqt hoñToñ par duā bhī aa.egī
zindagī kā ye maraz 'afzal' chalā hī jā.egā
tere hāthoñ meñ kabhī ḳhāk-e-shifā bhī aa.egī
kanch ki zanjir TuTi to sada bhi aaegi
aur bhare bazar mein tujh ko haya bhi aaegi
itr mein kapDe basa kar mutmain hai kis liye
ba-wafa hu ja ki yun bu-e-wafa bhi aaegi
dekh le sahil se ji bhar ke machalti lahr ko
is taraf kuchh der mein mauj-e-fana bhi aaegi
dudhiya nazuk gale mein bandh le tawiz ko
aaj sunta hun ki basti mein bala bhi aaegi
raat ke pichhle pahar dastak ka rakh lena KHayal
patte khaDkenge zara aawaz-e-pa bhi aaegi
ujli ujli KHwahishon par nind ki chadar na Dal
yaad ke rauzan se kuchh taza hawa bhi aaegi
ja chuke sare bagule fikr ki kya baat hai
khet ko sairab karne ab ghaTa bhi aaegi
daur ke logon ko nazron mein basa kar dekh le
qurb mil jaega aankhon mein jila bhi aaegi
shahr-e-na-pursan ke manzar naqsh kar le zehn mein
aankh raste mein koi manzar gira bhi aaegi
dil ki masjid mein kabhi paDh le tahajjud ki namaz
phir sahar ke waqt honTon par dua bhi aaegi
zindagi ka ye maraz 'afzal' chala hi jaega
tere hathon mein kabhi KHak-e-shifa bhi aaegi
