Sher of Salik Lakhnavi
sāhil pe qaid lākhoñ safīnoñ ke vāste
merī shikasta naav hai tūfāñ liye hue
sahil pe qaid lakhon safinon ke waste
meri shikasta naw hai tufan liye hue
manzil na milī kashmakash-e-ahl-e-nazar meñ
is bhiiḌ se maiñ apnī nazar le ke chalā huuñ
manzil na mili kashmakash-e-ahl-e-nazar mein
is bhiD se main apni nazar le ke chala hun
jo terī bazm se uTThā vo is tarah uTThā
kisī kī aañkh meñ aañsū kisī ke dāman meñ
jo teri bazm se uTTha wo is tarah uTTha
kisi ki aankh mein aansu kisi ke daman mein
ye bhī ik raat kaT hī jā.egī
sub.h-e-fardā kī muntazir hai nigāh
ye bhi ek raat kaT hi jaegi
subh-e-farda ki muntazir hai nigah
apnī ḳhuddārī salāmat dil kā aalam kuchh sahī
jis jagah se uTh chuke haiñ us jagah phir jaa.eñ kyā
apni KHuddari salamat dil ka aalam kuchh sahi
jis jagah se uTh chuke hain us jagah phir jaen kya
kahī kisī se na rūdād-e-zindagī maiñ ne
guzār dene kī shai thī guzār dī maiñ ne
kahi kisi se na rudad-e-zindagi main ne
guzar dene ki shai thi guzar di main ne
