ye mulaqat mulaqat nahin hoti hai
ye mulāqāt mulāqāt nahīñ hotī hai
baat hotī hai magar baat nahīñ hotī hai
bāryābī kā burā ho ki ab un ke dar par
agle vaqtoñ kī mudārāt nahīñ hotī hai
ġham to ghanghor ghaTāoñ kī tarah uThte haiñ
zabt kā dasht hai barsāt nahīñ hotī hai
ye mirā tajraba hai husn koī chaal chale
bāzi-e-ishq kabhī maat nahīñ hotī hai
vasl hai naam ham-āhañgī o yak-rañgī kā
vasl meñ koī burī baat nahīñ hotī hai
hijr tanhā.ī hai sūraj hai savā neze par
din hī rahtā hai yahāñ raat nahīñ hotī hai
zabt-e-girya kabhī kartā huuñ to farmāte haiñ
aaj kyā baat hai barsāt nahīñ hotī hai
mujhe allāh kī qasam sher meñ tahsīn-e-butāñ
maiñ jo kartā huuñ merī zaat nahīñ hotī hai
fikr-e-taḳhlīq-e-suḳhan masnad-e-rāhat pe hafīz
bā.is-e-kashf-o-karāmāt nahīñ hotī hai
ye mulaqat mulaqat nahin hoti hai
baat hoti hai magar baat nahin hoti hai
baryabi ka bura ho ki ab un ke dar par
agle waqton ki mudaraat nahin hoti hai
gham to ghanghor ghaTaon ki tarah uThte hain
zabt ka dasht hai barsat nahin hoti hai
ye mera tajraba hai husn koi chaal chale
bazi-e-ishq kabhi mat nahin hoti hai
wasl hai nam ham-ahangi o yak-rangi ka
wasl mein koi buri baat nahin hoti hai
hijr tanhai hai suraj hai sawa neze par
din hi rahta hai yahan raat nahin hoti hai
zabt-e-girya kabhi karta hun to farmate hain
aaj kya baat hai barsat nahin hoti hai
mujhe allah ki qasam sher mein tahsin-e-butan
main jo karta hun meri zat nahin hoti hai
fikr-e-taKHliq-e-suKHan masnad-e-rahat pe hafiz
bais-e-kashf-o-karamat nahin hoti hai
