jab KHuda ko jahan basana tha
jab ḳhudā ko jahāñ basānā thā
tujh ko aisā nahīñ banānā thā
mere ghar terā aanā jaanā thā
vo bhī ai yaar kyā zamāna thā
phir ga.e aap mere kūche se
do qadam par ġharīb-ḳhāna thā
jo na samjhe ki āshiqī kyā hai
us se be-kār dil lagānā thā
aa.e the baḳht āzmāne ham
aap ko teġh āzmānā thā
ai sitamgār qabr-e-āshiq par
chand aañsū tujhe bahānā thā
tū ne rahne diyā pas-e-dīvār
varna apnā kahāñ Thikānā thā
ab jahāñ par hai shaiḳh kī masjid
pahle us jā sharāb-ḳhāna thā
daḳhl ahl-e-riyā na rakhte the
pāk-bāzoñ kā aanā jaanā thā
bazm meñ ġhair ko na bulvāte
aap ko jab hameñ bulānā thā
vo chaman ab ḳhizāñ-rasīda hai
bulbuloñ kā jahāñ tarāna thā
sunte haiñ vo shajar bhī suukh gayā
jis pe sayyād āshiyāna thā
dil na dete use to kyā karte
ai 'asar' dukh hameñ uThānā thā
jab KHuda ko jahan basana tha
tujh ko aisa nahin banana tha
mere ghar tera aana jaana tha
wo bhi ai yar kya zamana tha
phir gae aap mere kuche se
do qadam par gharib-KHana tha
jo na samjhe ki aashiqi kya hai
us se be-kar dil lagana tha
aae the baKHt aazmane hum
aap ko tegh aazmana tha
ai sitamgar qabr-e-ashiq par
chand aansu tujhe bahana tha
tu ne rahne diya pas-e-diwar
warna apna kahan Thikana tha
ab jahan par hai shaiKH ki masjid
pahle us ja sharab-KHana tha
daKHl ahl-e-riya na rakhte the
pak-bazon ka aana jaana tha
bazm mein ghair ko na bulwate
aap ko jab hamein bulana tha
wo chaman ab KHizan-rasida hai
bulbulon ka jahan tarana tha
sunte hain wo shajar bhi sukh gaya
jis pe sayyaad aashiyana tha
dil na dete use to kya karte
ai 'asar' dukh hamein uThana tha
