aaj jalti hui har shama bujha di jae
aaj jaltī huī har sham.a bujhā dī jaa.e
ġham kī tauqīr zarā aur baḌhā dī jaa.e
kyā isī vāste sīñchā thā lahū se apne
jab sañvar jaa.e chaman aag lagā dī jaa.e
aql kā hukm ki sāhil se lagā do kashtī
dil kā isrār ki tūfāñ se laḌā dī jaa.e
duur tak dil meñ dikhā.ī nahīñ detā koī
aise vīrāne meñ ab kis ko sadā dī jaa.e
tabsira ba.ad meñ bhī qatl pe ho saktā hai
pahle ye laash to raste se haTā dī jaa.e
maslahat ab to isī meñ nazar aatī hai 'alī'
ki hañsī aa.e to ashkoñ meñ bahā dī jaa.e
aaj jalti hui har shama bujha di jae
gham ki tauqir zara aur baDha di jae
kya isi waste sincha tha lahu se apne
jab sanwar jae chaman aag laga di jae
aql ka hukm ki sahil se laga do kashti
dil ka israr ki tufan se laDa di jae
dur tak dil mein dikhai nahin deta koi
aise virane mein ab kis ko sada di jae
tabsira baad mein bhi qatl pe ho sakta hai
pahle ye lash to raste se haTa di jae
maslahat ab to isi mein nazar aati hai 'ali'
ki hansi aae to ashkon mein baha di jae
