kisi se ishq karna aur isko ba-KHabar karna

kisī se ishq karnā aur is ko bā-ḳhabar karnā

hai apne matlab-e-dushvār ko dushvār-tar karnā

nahīñ hai maut par kuchh iḳhtiyār ai vā-e-majbūrī

umīd-e-marg meñ mushkil basar karnā magar karnā

jo par the māya-e-parvāz meñ vaj.h-e-girāñbārī

ġhurūr-e-bāl-o-par karnā to mujh ko dekh kar karnā

jafā kar shauq se tū zabt par mere na jā hargiz

shikāyat kyā mujhe ye kaam hai jab 'umr bhar karnā

jafā un kī vafā-parvar vafā merī jafā-parvar

vo un ko 'umr-bhar karnā ye mujh ko 'umr-bhar karnā

sar-e-rah pūchhte haiñ haal kyā kahiye ki mushkil hai

bayān-e-dard-e-dil karnā aur is ko muḳhtasar karnā

tavajjoh chāra-gar kī bā.is-e-taklīf hai 'beḳhud'

izāfa hai musībat meñ davāoñ kā asar karnā

kisi se ishq karna aur is ko ba-KHabar karna

hai apne matlab-e-dushwar ko dushwar-tar karna

nahin hai maut par kuchh iKHtiyar ai wa-e-majburi

umid-e-marg mein mushkil basar karna magar karna

jo par the maya-e-parwaz mein wajh-e-giranbari

ghurur-e-baal-o-par karna to mujh ko dekh kar karna

jafa kar shauq se tu zabt par mere na ja hargiz

shikayat kya mujhe ye kaam hai jab 'umr bhar karna

jafa un ki wafa-parwar wafa meri jafa-parwar

wo un ko 'umr-bhar karna ye mujh ko 'umr-bhar karna

sar-e-rah puchhte hain haal kya kahiye ki mushkil hai

bayan-e-dard-e-dil karna aur is ko muKHtasar karna

tawajjoh chaara-gar ki bais-e-taklif hai 'beKHud'

izafa hai musibat mein dawaon ka asar karna
