kya ishq ek zindagi-e-mustaar ka
kyā ishq ek zindagī-e-musta.ār kā
kyā ishq pā.edār se nā-pā.edār kā
vo ishq jis kī sham.a bujhā de ajal kī phūñk
us meñ maza nahīñ tapish o intizār kā
merī bisāt kyā hai tab-o-tāb-e-yak-nafas
sho.ala se be-mahal hai ulajhnā sharār kā
kar pahle mujh ko zindagī-e-jāvedāñ atā
phir zauq o shauq dekh dil-e-be-qarār kā
kāñTā vo de ki jis kī khaTak lā-zavāl ho
yā-rab vo dard jis kī kasak lā-zavāl ho
kya ishq ek zindagi-e-mustaar ka
kya ishq paedar se na-paedar ka
wo ishq jis ki shama bujha de ajal ki phunk
us mein maza nahin tapish o intizar ka
meri bisat kya hai tab-o-tab-e-yak-nafas
shoala se be-mahal hai ulajhna sharar ka
kar pahle mujh ko zindagi-e-jawedan ata
phir zauq o shauq dekh dil-e-be-qarar ka
kanTa wo de ki jis ki khaTak la-zawal ho
ya-rab wo dard jis ki kasak la-zawal ho
