subh aankh khulti hai ek din nikalta hai
sub.h aañkh khultī hai ek din nikaltā hai
phir ye ek din barsoñ saath saath chaltā hai
kuchh na kuchh to hotā hai ik tire na hone se
varna aisī bātoñ par kaun haath maltā hai
qāfile to sahrā meñ thak ke so bhī jaate haiñ
chāñd bādaloñ ke saath saarī raat chaltā hai
dil charāġh-e-mahfil hai lekin us ke aane tak
baar baar bujhtā hai baar baar jaltā hai
kulfateñ judā.ī kī umr bhar nahīñ jātīñ
jī bahal to jaatā hai par kahāñ bahaltā hai
dil tapāñ nahīñ rahtā maiñ ġhazal nahīñ kahtā
ye sharār apnī hī aag se uchhaltā hai
maiñ bisāt-e-dānish kā duur se tamāshā.ī
dekhtā rahā shātir kaise chaal chaltā hai
subh aankh khulti hai ek din nikalta hai
phir ye ek din barson sath sath chalta hai
kuchh na kuchh to hota hai ek tere na hone se
warna aisi baaton par kaun hath malta hai
qafile to sahra mein thak ke so bhi jate hain
chand baadalon ke sath sari raat chalta hai
dil charagh-e-mahfil hai lekin us ke aane tak
bar bar bujhta hai bar bar jalta hai
kulfaten judai ki umr bhar nahin jatin
ji bahal to jata hai par kahan bahalta hai
dil tapan nahin rahta main ghazal nahin kahta
ye sharar apni hi aag se uchhalta hai
main bisat-e-danish ka dur se tamashai
dekhta raha shatir kaise chaal chalta hai
