zist karna dar-e-idrak se bahar hai abhi

ziist karnā dar-e-idrāk se bāhar hai abhī

ye sitāra mire aflāk se bāhar hai abhī

DhūñDte haiñ usī nashshe ko sabhī bāda-gusār

ek nashsha jo rag-e-tāk se bāhar hai abhī

ek hī lamhe meñ tasḳhīr karegī use aañkh

par vo lamha mire aflāk se bāhar hai abhī

kuchh mire chāk-e-garebāñ ko ḳhabar ho shāyad

ek gardish jo mire chaak se bāhar hai abhī

bas vahī ashk mirā hāsil-e-girya hai 'aqīl'

jo mire dīda-e-namnāk se bāhar hai abhī

zist karna dar-e-idrak se bahar hai abhi

ye sitara mere aflak se bahar hai abhi

DhunDte hain usi nashshe ko sabhi baada-gusar

ek nashsha jo rag-e-tak se bahar hai abhi

ek hi lamhe mein tasKHir karegi use aankh

par wo lamha mere aflak se bahar hai abhi

kuchh mere chaak-e-gareban ko KHabar ho shayad

ek gardish jo mere chaak se bahar hai abhi

bas wahi ashk mera hasil-e-girya hai 'aqil'

jo mere dida-e-namnak se bahar hai abhi
