abhi dasht-e-karbala mein hai buland ye tarana

abhī dasht-e-karbalā meñ hai buland ye tarāna

yahī zindagī haqīqat yahī zindagī fasāna

tirā kaam tan kī puujā mirā kaam man kī sevā

mujhe justujū yaqīñ kī tujhe fikr-e-āb-o-dāna

mire shauq-e-muztarib se hai ravāñ nizām-e-hastī

jo Thahar ga.ī mohabbat to Thahar gayā zamāna

vo faqīh-e-kū-e-bātin hai adū-e-dīn-o-millat

kisī ḳhauf-e-duniyavī se jo tarāsh de fasāna

tirā ḳhār-o-ḳhas pe takiya mirā ishq par bharosa

mujhe barq se mohabbat tujhe ḳhauf-e-āshiyāna

mire jazb-e-dil ko 'māhir' koī kyā samajh sakegā

mirī shā.irī kī had se abhī duur hai zamāna

abhi dasht-e-karbala mein hai buland ye tarana

yahi zindagi haqiqat yahi zindagi fasana

tera kaam tan ki puja mera kaam man ki sewa

mujhe justuju yaqin ki tujhe fikr-e-ab-o-dana

mere shauq-e-muztarib se hai rawan nizam-e-hasti

jo Thahar gai mohabbat to Thahar gaya zamana

wo faqih-e-ku-e-baatin hai adu-e-din-o-millat

kisi KHauf-e-duniyawi se jo tarash de fasana

tera KHar-o-KHas pe takiya mera ishq par bharosa

mujhe barq se mohabbat tujhe KHauf-e-ashiyana

mere jazb-e-dil ko 'mahir' koi kya samajh sakega

meri shairi ki had se abhi dur hai zamana
