agar sawal wo karta jawab kya leta
agar savāl vo kartā javāb kyā letā
ye ġham usī ne diyā thā hisāb kyā letā
bahut hujūm thā ta.abīr kī dukānoñ par
hamīñ the varna koī jins-e-ḳhvāb kyā letā
hamāre ahd meñ arzānī-e-naqāb na pūchh
maiñ kor chashmoñ kī ḳhātir naqāb kyā letā
furāt aaj ravāñ hai yazīd pyāsā hai
ye pyaas koī bujhā kar savāb kyā letā
are jise varaq-e-chehra-chehra yaad ho 'shāz'
bhalā vo aadmī daras-e-kitāb kyā letā
agar sawal wo karta jawab kya leta
ye gham usi ne diya tha hisab kya leta
bahut hujum tha tabir ki dukanon par
hamin the warna koi jins-e-KHwab kya leta
hamare ahd mein arzani-e-naqab na puchh
main kor chashmon ki KHatir naqab kya leta
furaat aaj rawan hai yazid pyasa hai
ye pyas koi bujha kar sawab kya leta
are jise waraq-e-chehra-chehra yaad ho 'shaz'
bhala wo aadmi daras-e-kitab kya leta
