ai but jafa se apni liya kar wafa ka kaam
ai but jafā se apnī liyā kar vafā kā kaam
bandoñ ke kaam aa ki yahī hai ḳhudā kā kaam
kis jā thā qasd shauq ne pahuñchā diyā kidhar
kahte na the Thagoñ se na le rahnumā kā kaam
kahtā hai dil sunā mujhe gesū kī dāstāñ
aaj us ne sar pe Daal diyā hai balā kā kaam
tāsīr ko na aah se pūchhūñ to kyā karūñ
kyuuñ ḳhud uThā liyā dil-e-be-mudda.ā kā kaam
apnī sī tū to kar unheñ phir iḳhtiyār hai
sunñā hai un kā kaam pahuñchnā duā kā kaam
siine meñ daaġh khilte hī jaate haiñ har nafas
ab apnī saañs kartī hai bād-e-sabā kā kaam
muusā faqat na the tire ā.īna-dāroñ meñ
iisā bhī karte the lab-e-mojiz-numā kā kaam
har raat apnī āñkhoñ ko ronā hai farz-e-ain
tā.at-guzār karte haiñ jaise ḳhudā kā kaam
thā bhī zalīl husn kī sarkār meñ ye dil
kam-baḳht ko supurd huā iltijā kā kaam
ai 'shād' merī saḳht-zabānī pe hai ḳhamosh
nāseh bhī ab to karne lagā ambiyā kā kaam
ai but jafa se apni liya kar wafa ka kaam
bandon ke kaam aa ki yahi hai KHuda ka kaam
kis ja tha qasd shauq ne pahuncha diya kidhar
kahte na the Thagon se na le rahnuma ka kaam
kahta hai dil suna mujhe gesu ki dastan
aaj us ne sar pe Dal diya hai bala ka kaam
tasir ko na aah se puchhun to kya karun
kyun KHud uTha liya dil-e-be-muddaa ka kaam
apni si tu to kar unhen phir iKHtiyar hai
sunna hai un ka kaam pahunchna dua ka kaam
sine mein dagh khilte hi jate hain har nafas
ab apni sans karti hai baad-e-saba ka kaam
musa faqat na the tere aaina-daron mein
isa bhi karte the lab-e-mojiz-numa ka kaam
har raat apni aankhon ko rona hai farz-e-ain
taat-guzar karte hain jaise KHuda ka kaam
tha bhi zalil husn ki sarkar mein ye dil
kam-baKHt ko supurd hua iltija ka kaam
ai 'shad' meri saKHt-zabani pe hai KHamosh
naseh bhi ab to karne laga ambiya ka kaam
