jab ghar se wo baad-e-mah nikle
jab ghar se vo ba.ad-e-māh nikle
muñh se mire kyuuñ na aah nikle
dil vo hai ki jis se chaah nikle
muñh vo hai ki jis se aah nikle
zindāñ kī to apne sair tū kar
shāyad koī be-gunāh nikle
'mānī' se khiñchī na ḳhat kī tasvīr
lākhoñ varaq siyāh nikle
ḳhajlat ye huī ki mahkme se
sharminda mire gavāh nikle
raste masdūd ho ga.e haiñ
ab dekhiye kyūñke raah nikle
palkeñ nahīñ chhoḌtīñ ki ik dam
āñkhoñ se tirī nigāh nikle
ai aah tū le to chal alam ko
tā āñsuoñ kī sipāh nikle
niklā maiñ galī se us kī is tarah
jaise koī dād-ḳhvāh nikle
vo soḳhta maiñ nahīñ ki jis kī
turbat se gil o gayāh nikle
sher apne jo 'mus.hafī' paḌhūñ maiñ
muñh se tire vaah vaah nikle
jab ghar se wo baad-e-mah nikle
munh se mere kyun na aah nikle
dil wo hai ki jis se chah nikle
munh wo hai ki jis se aah nikle
zindan ki to apne sair tu kar
shayad koi be-gunah nikle
'mani' se khinchi na KHat ki taswir
lakhon waraq siyah nikle
KHajlat ye hui ki mahkme se
sharminda mere gawah nikle
raste masdud ho gae hain
ab dekhiye kyunke rah nikle
palken nahin chhoDtin ki ek dam
aankhon se teri nigah nikle
ai aah tu le to chal alam ko
ta aansuon ki sipah nikle
nikla main gali se us ki is tarah
jaise koi dad-KHwah nikle
wo soKHta main nahin ki jis ki
turbat se gil o gayah nikle
sher apne jo 'mushafi' paDhun main
munh se tere wah wah nikle
