dil mera luT gaya wo baDi tauqir ke sath

dil mera lut gaya wo badi tauqir ke sath
jo mujhe jit na paya kabhi shamshir ke sath
koi kis tarah se badlega muqaddar ka likha
koi kis tarah se lad paega taqdir ke sath


dil ki nagri se kai ek musafir guzre
koi thahra hi nahin hai dil-e-be-pir ke sath
dard jab had se guzar jae to kuchh baat bane
nam mera bhi kabhi aae taqi-'mir' ke sath


main use bhul ke bhi yaad nahin aa sakti
jo mujhe bandh gaya dard ki zanjir ke sath
main ne minnat se aur minnat se tumhein manga hai
tum jo mil sakte the mujh ko kisi tadbir ke sath


ye hi alfaz meri shan hain sarmaya hain
kuchh taqabul nahin in ka kisi jagir ke sath
kat kar aaj ke akhbar ko tawiz kiya
teri taswir chhapi hai teri tahrir ke sath


tujh ko ranjha se kabhi bhi koi nisbat na rahi
har fasane mein mera zikr chala hir ke sath
aap pahlu se yun chup-chap lage baithe hain
jaise taswir laga de koi taswir ke sath


dad milti hai 'tabassum' tujhe yun der ke ba'd
tere ashaar samajh aate hain takhir ke sath
