ab shikayat kya karen guzre hue tufan se

ab shikāyat kyā kareñ guzre hue tūfān se

raushnī aane lagī hai phir se raushan-dān se

ḳhvāhishoñ kī arthiyāñ ab to uTheñgī shaan se

dil lagā baiThī hai merī muflisī dhanvān se

chhū gayā jo bhuul se un ke dupaTTe kā sirā

ḳhushbueñ aane lagīñ sūkhe hue gul-dān se

zehn par duniyā kī lālach phir se haavī ho ga.ī

de ke miTTī maiñ abhī lauTā thā qabristān se

gar vafādārī kī ḳhvāhish hai to kutte paal le

mat vafā kī aas rakh is daur ke insān se

shart ye hai kuchh zamīñ bone kī ḳhātir to mile

jiit lūñgā maiñ jahāñ ko ek muTThī dhaan se

chheḌtī hai yaad terī jab mujhe pichhle pahar

rone lagtā huuñ maiñ lag ke 'mīr' ke dīvān se

jin ko ho jām-e-shahādat kī talab 'dīdār' phir

vo nahīñ aate palaT kar jang ke maidān se

ab shikayat kya karen guzre hue tufan se

raushni aane lagi hai phir se raushan-dan se

KHwahishon ki arthiyan ab to uThengi shan se

dil laga baiThi hai meri muflisi dhanwan se

chhu gaya jo bhul se un ke dupaTTe ka sira

KHushbuen aane lagin sukhe hue gul-dan se

zehn par duniya ki lalach phir se hawi ho gai

de ke miTTi main abhi lauTa tha qabristan se

gar wafadari ki KHwahish hai to kutte pal le

mat wafa ki aas rakh is daur ke insan se

shart ye hai kuchh zamin bone ki KHatir to mile

jit lunga main jahan ko ek muTThi dhan se

chheDti hai yaad teri jab mujhe pichhle pahar

rone lagta hun main lag ke 'mir' ke diwan se

jin ko ho jam-e-shahadat ki talab 'didar' phir

wo nahin aate palaT kar jang ke maidan se
