ruKHsat hua to aankh mila kar nahin gaya
ruḳhsat huā to aañkh milā kar nahīñ gayā
vo kyuuñ gayā hai ye bhī batā kar nahīñ gayā
vo yuuñ gayā ki bād-e-sabā yaad aa ga.ī
ehsās tak bhī ham ko dilā kar nahīñ gayā
yuuñ lag rahā hai jaise abhī lauT aa.egā
jaate hue charāġh bujhā kar nahīñ gayā
bas ik lakīr khīñch gayā darmiyān meñ
dīvār rāste meñ banā kar nahīñ gayā
shāyad vo mil hī jaa.e magar justujū hai shart
vo apne naqsh-e-pā to miTā kar nahīñ gayā
ghar meñ hai aaj tak vahī ḳhushbū basī huī
lagtā hai yuuñ ki jaise vo aa kar nahīñ gayā
tab tak to phuul jaisī hī taaza thī us kī yaad
jab tak vo pattiyoñ ko judā kar nahīñ gayā
rahne diyā na us ne kisī kaam kā mujhe
aur ḳhaak meñ bhī mujh ko milā kar nahīñ gayā
vaisī hī be-talab hai abhī merī zindagī
vo ḳhār-o-ḳhas meñ aag lagā kar nahīñ gayā
'shahzād' ye gila hī rahā us kī zaat se
jaate hue vo koī gila kar nahīñ gayā
ruKHsat hua to aankh mila kar nahin gaya
wo kyun gaya hai ye bhi bata kar nahin gaya
wo yun gaya ki baad-e-saba yaad aa gai
ehsas tak bhi hum ko dila kar nahin gaya
yun lag raha hai jaise abhi lauT aaega
jate hue charagh bujha kar nahin gaya
bas ek lakir khinch gaya darmiyan mein
diwar raste mein bana kar nahin gaya
shayad wo mil hi jae magar justuju hai shart
wo apne naqsh-e-pa to miTa kar nahin gaya
ghar mein hai aaj tak wahi KHushbu basi hui
lagta hai yun ki jaise wo aa kar nahin gaya
tab tak to phul jaisi hi taza thi us ki yaad
jab tak wo pattiyon ko juda kar nahin gaya
rahne diya na us ne kisi kaam ka mujhe
aur KHak mein bhi mujh ko mila kar nahin gaya
waisi hi be-talab hai abhi meri zindagi
wo KHar-o-KHas mein aag laga kar nahin gaya
'shahzad' ye gila hi raha us ki zat se
jate hue wo koi gila kar nahin gaya
