bhala kyon faisla wo bhi usi dauran le baiTha

bhalā kyoñ faisla vo bhī usī daurān le baiThā

samajh meñ ab use aayā ki kyā nuqsān le baiThā

use lagtā thā kuchh bhī vo kisī ke saath kar degā

magar kitnā baḌā vo shaḳhs hai nuqsān le baiThā

agar himmat tumheñ hai to akhāḌe meñ laḌo jā kar

kisī lāchār ko to maar apnī shaan le baiThā

agar patthar tirā dil hai to sun le ġhaur se phir tū

samajh le mard kahlāne kī tū pahchān le baiThā

bahut mushkil se miltī hai adab kī zindagī lekin

suḳhan-var kyoñ ise itnā hai phir āsān le baiThā

bhala kyon faisla wo bhi usi dauran le baiTha

samajh mein ab use aaya ki kya nuqsan le baiTha

use lagta tha kuchh bhi wo kisi ke sath kar dega

magar kitna baDa wo shaKHs hai nuqsan le baiTha

agar himmat tumhein hai to akhaDe mein laDo ja kar

kisi lachaar ko to mar apni shan le baiTha

agar patthar tera dil hai to sun le ghaur se phir tu

samajh le mard kahlane ki tu pahchan le baiTha

bahut mushkil se milti hai adab ki zindagi lekin

suKHan-war kyon ise itna hai phir aasan le baiTha
