Apne Hoṭhon Par Sajana Chahta Hun

Apne hoṭhoṅ par sajānā chāhtā hūṅ,
Ā tujhe main gungunānā chāhtā hūṅ.

Ko’ī āṅsū tere dāman par girā kar,
Būnd ko motī banānā chāhtā hūṅ.

Kabhī kahā na kisī se tere fasāne ko,
Na jāne kaise ḵẖabar ho ga’ī zamāne ko.

Chaman meṅ barq nahīṅ chhoṛtī kisī ṣūrat,
Tarah tarah se banātā hūṅ āshiyāne ko.

Kahte haiṅ mujhse ‘ishq kā afsānā chāhiye,
Rusvā’ī ho ga’ī, tumheṅ sharmānā chāhiye.

Khuddār itnī fitrat-e-rindānā chāhiye,
Sāqī ye ḵẖud kahe, tujhe paimānā chāhiye.

Aī mere ham-nashīṅ, chal kahīṅ aur chal,
Is chaman meṅ ab apnā guzārā nahīṅ.

Bāt hotī guloṅ tak to sah lete ham,
Ab to kāṅṭoṅ pe bhī ḥaq hamārā nahīṅ.

Qurbatoṅ meṅ bhī judā’ī ke zamāne māṅge
Dil vo be-mehr ki rone ke bahāne māṅge.

Apnā ye ḥāl ke jī hār chuke, luṭ bhī chuke,
Aur muḥabbat vahī andāz purāne māṅge
