aajizi to hai nahin guftar mein

'ājizī to hai nahīñ guftār meñ

kaun pūchhegā hameñ darbār meñ

nafsiyātī nuqs hai do-chār meñ

varna hai sab kā ‘aqīda pyaar meñ

sang rakhtā hai use jo ye gulāb

kuchh to dekhā hogā āḳhir ḳhaar meñ

bārhā rotā hai dil ye soch kar

ban kaTegā shahr ke vistār meñ

pūchhne aa.e the merī ḳhairiyat

de ga.e ġham aur vo up.hār meñ

'mīr' 'ġhālib' 'zauq' sab kā shukriya

rang kyā kyā bhar ga.e ash'ār meñ

baiThā hai pardes meñ laḳht-e-jigar

kyā ḳhushī maañ ko mile tyauhār meñ

'ajizi to hai nahin guftar mein

kaun puchhega hamein darbar mein

nafsiyati nuqs hai do-chaar mein

warna hai sab ka ‘aqida pyar mein

sang rakhta hai use jo ye gulab

kuchh to dekha hoga aaKHir KHar mein

barha rota hai dil ye soch kar

ban kaTega shahr ke wistar mein

puchhne aae the meri KHairiyat

de gae gham aur wo uphaar mein

'mir' 'ghaalib' 'zauq' sab ka shukriya

rang kya kya bhar gae ash'ar mein

baiTha hai pardes mein laKHt-e-jigar

kya KHushi man ko mile tyauhaar mein
