chahte hain ghar buton ke dil mein hum
chāhte haiñ ghar butoñ ke dil meñ ham
haiñ junūñ kī āḳhirī manzil meñ ham
giit gaate haiñ qafas manzil meñ ham
koste jaate haiñ lekin dil meñ ham
ye to mat mahsūs hone dījiye
ajnabī haiñ aap kī mahfil meñ ham
mai-kade ke chor-darvāze bhī haiñ
aa to jaa.eñ shaiḳh kī manzil meñ ham
ḳhud-fareboñ ko payām-e-āgahī
mubtalā haiñ sa.i-e-lā-hāsil meñ ham
duur se aatā hai mub.ham sā javāb
deñ use āvāz jis manzil meñ ham
rok leñ palkoñ pe aañsū kī tarah
kyā samo deñ mauj ko sāhil meñ ham
sochiye āḳhir vo kyā hālāt haiñ
jā rahe haiñ kūcha-e-qātil meñ ham
jī na mailā kījiye fariyād par
haiñ pashemāñ āp-apne dil meñ ham
ham ġhalat ruj.hān rakhte the ki aap
aap se pūchheñge mustaqbil meñ ham
nā-shanāsān-e-adab ke haath se
'shād'-sāhib haiñ baḌī mushkil meñ ham
chahte hain ghar buton ke dil mein hum
hain junun ki aaKHiri manzil mein hum
git gate hain qafas manzil mein hum
koste jate hain lekin dil mein hum
ye to mat mahsus hone dijiye
ajnabi hain aap ki mahfil mein hum
mai-kade ke chor-darwaze bhi hain
aa to jaen shaiKH ki manzil mein hum
KHud-farebon ko payam-e-agahi
mubtala hain sai-e-la-hasil mein hum
dur se aata hai mubham sa jawab
den use aawaz jis manzil mein hum
rok len palkon pe aansu ki tarah
kya samo den mauj ko sahil mein hum
sochiye aaKHir wo kya haalat hain
ja rahe hain kucha-e-qatil mein hum
ji na maila kijiye fariyaad par
hain pasheman aap-apne dil mein hum
hum ghalat rujhan rakhte the ki aap
aap se puchhenge mustaqbil mein hum
na-shanasan-e-adab ke hath se
'shad'-sahib hain baDi mushkil mein hum
